This wonderful brownie recipe was sent to me by Angela, a fellow chocoholic who clearly has good taste. They're fudgy, moist, but not too dense (so you can eat lots!), and I love how they're made with real cocoa instead of chocolate chips.
They're definitely my new favourite. I didn't have any instant coffee, so I couldn't make the recommended icing, but I just whipped up a simple icing sugar buttercream with some cocoa and it worked great.
