Ingredients

Scale

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup melted butter
2 large eggs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp instant coffee granules
1 cup powdered sugar (for frosting)
4 oz cream cheese (softened)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix melted butter and sugar until combined. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, and instant coffee granules. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth it out evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
For the frosting, beat together softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until fluffy. You may add a splash of milk for desired consistency.
Allow brownies to cool completely before spreading frosting on top.
