Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and prepare a 9x12 baking pan by spraying generously with non-stick spray and parchment paper and set aside.
- In a microwave safe bowl, add the butter and semi-sweet chocolate and heat in the microwave on 30 second increments, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. Set aside to cool.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer equipped with a paddle attachment, add the sugar, eggs, and vanilla, and mix until well combined.
- Pour in the cooled chocolate mixture and mix until well combined and smooth.
- Sift in the flour, baking powder, espresso powder, and cocoa powder. Mix until just combined and there are no dry spots remaining.
- Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth evenly. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the brownies comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
Frosting:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer equipped with a paddle attachment, cream the butter on high speed until smooth.
- Add the cocoa powder, vanilla, and powdered sugar and mix on low speed until combined. Increase speed to high for about 1 minutes.
- Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl and mix in the heavy whipping cream until you get desired consistency.
- Once the brownies are cool, add the frosting on top and smooth evenly.
- Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
