Let’s just get right down to business shall we? Double Chocolate Mocha Brownies are happening and life will never be the same.
Where do we even start today? Before we get to the best brownies the world has ever seen (recipe inspired by one my grandma used to make us as kids) let’s talk about the fact that I never had a cup of coffee until college. Clearly I hadn’t lived. The first time I had a coffee, it came in the form of a mocha and life pretty much changed before my eyes. I’ve been obsessed with mochas in all ways ever since.
Chocolate and Coffee are a match made in heaven and these brownies are no exception to that rule!
So, without further ado, grab yourself a cup of coffee and have at it!

Hi Gaby! These look amazing. What temperature should they be baked at? Sorry if I missed that in the instructions!
350!!
Gaby last night I made your Cappuccino brownies for friends coming over tonight. I get raves each time I make them. Seriously THE BEST brownies ever!!! Thanks for all your amazing recipes & I’m going to try this one as well.
Brownies!! Love them every which way!! Can’t wait to try these.
These look great – do you think coconut sugar would work in place of white sugar?
haven’t tried it!! but sounds delish
Tried them with coconut sugar and they are just as good! Also used GF flour and Enjoy Life semisweet chips and they were still great as well!
I love the smell of coffee but cannot stand the taste, but I’ve learned that just a little makes chocolate even better like in tiramisu!
I made these brownies today & they were absolutely delicious, even though I forgot to add the chocolate chips before putting the pan in the oven.
What can you use in place of espresso powder? Actual espresso? Instant coffee powder? Couldn’t find any at my grocery store.
just leave it out and it will still be brilliant
These brownies are so easy and delicious! I will never make brownies from a box ever again!!!!
Hi Gaby, these look amazing but what are the measurements in grams
The best….they have now become a craving and I have made them twice in the last three days!!!!
Two things:
1. These are AMAZING. I would eat the batter raw, and I don’t eat raw batter, not even cookie dough.
2. Do you seriously wait for these to cool? HOW??
Thank you for this amazing recipe!!
We LOVE these brownies! So easy so good so perfect! I’ve made them 4 times in the last month!
Want to make these chocolate mocha brownies for someone who is allergic to eggs. What do you suggest so that the flavor remains divine?
Thanks
I haven’t tested it with an egg substitute so I can’t say for sure! What do they normally use as a sub?
I can’t wait to try these!! They sound delicious!!
These will now be my go to brownie! Outstanding.
Made for dessert Wed. Yes it is a thing….Desseprt and survivor….lol In the oven so can’t rate yet but batter was amazing. Didn’t have espresso powder so googled it and made my own as I had espresso beans. Super easy and house smelled so good. Now we just have to wait…..the hardest part.
I made these for breakfast this morning and feel no guilt! So delicious! Can’t wait to receive your new cookbook,

I doubled the recipe, how long should I bake? Doing it in a 9×13
haven’t tested it as a doubled recipe!!
The best brownie recipe! Thanks Gaby!
Is there a difference between instant espresso powder and regular? Which is normally used for baking?
yes – this is what I use: https://www.amazon.com/Medaglia-DOro-Instant-Espresso-2-Ounce/dp/B00PACLYU8?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_1
The brownies came out perfect! Crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Amazing recipe. Thank you 🙂
