Chocolate for breakfast. Or chocolate with your 3 o’clock pick-me-up coffee. I’ve been there. Trying to keep my eyes open early in the morning while making myself a cup of coffee and there it was, that leftover piece of chocolate tempting me before I even pour the steaming coffee and have a first sip.

Or mid-afternoon when all I want is to lay down to take a nap. I need a pick me up, usually a sweet treat to keep me going until the end of the day.

Today I have the perfect recipe for those days. Say Hello to espresso brownies.

Rich, sweet, chocolate-y with a strong coffee flavor. Keep away from kids, this a grown-up treat. To make it even more grown-up you could add a little bit of coffee liquor to the frosting or even a tablespoon or two to the brownie batter.

To get the recipe, please follow me to Jen’s blog

Coffee and chocolate are two of my addictions! This way I can satisfy both in one bite ;)
