Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray an 8″ square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Microwave chocolate chips and butter in microwave for about 45 seconds. If not mostly melted, microwave for 20 more seconds. Stir until smooth. Whisk in the cocoa powder and espresso powder. Set aside.

- Pour mixture into prepared pan, spread evenly and level the surface with a rubber spatula.
