Ingredients

• 115 grams Unsalted butter
• 170 grams Semisweet chocolate chips
• 200 grams Granulated sugar
• 100 grams Brown sugar
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Irish whiskey
• 4 tablespoons Brewed coffee (cooled)
• 100 grams All-purpose flour
• 30 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 120 milliliters Heavy cream
• 75 grams Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Irish cream liqueur
• 1 teaspoon Instant coffee granules

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a 9x9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on both sides for easy removal.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and semisweet chocolate chips. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth and melted. Let cool slightly.

Step 3

Whisk in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until combined.

Step 4

Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition, until the mixture is smooth and glossy.

Step 5

Stir in the vanilla extract, Irish whiskey, and brewed coffee.

Step 6

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula, being careful not to overmix.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Step 8

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang.

Step 9

While the brownies cool, prepare the frosting: In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream and powdered sugar using a hand mixer or stand mixer until soft peaks form.

Step 10

In a small bowl, dissolve the instant coffee granules in the Irish cream liqueur, then fold this mixture gently into the whipped cream until combined.

Step 11

Spread the Irish coffee frosting evenly over the cooled brownies.

Step 12

Use a sharp knife to cut the brownies into 12 squares. Serve and enjoy!
