Rescue Roast® Signature Coffee Brownies

Deeply chocolatey, irresistibly fudgy and enriched with the smooth flavour of Rescue Roast® Signature Blend. These brownies are simple to make and perfect with a freshly brewed cup of coffee.

Makes

Approximately 16 brownies

Ingredients

✓ 170 g butter
✓ 200 g dark chocolate, roughly chopped
✓ 1 cup sugar
✓ ½ cup brown sugar
✓ 3 large eggs
✓ 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
✓ ¼ cup strongly brewed Rescue Roast® Signature Blend, cooled
✓ ¾ cup cake flour
✓ ¼ cup cocoa powder
✓ ½ teaspoon salt
✓ ½ cup chocolate chips or roughly chopped chocolate

Optional topping

✓ Chocolate-covered coffee beans
✓ Grated dark chocolate
✓ Light dusting of cocoa powder

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 175°C.

  2. Line a square baking tin of approximately 20 cm × 20 cm with baking paper.

  3. Place the butter and chopped dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl.

  4. Melt them gently over a saucepan of simmering water, or microwave in short intervals, stirring until smooth.

  5. Allow the chocolate mixture to cool for a few minutes.

  6. Whisk the sugar, brown sugar and eggs together until glossy and slightly thickened.

  7. Add the vanilla essence and cooled Rescue Roast® Signature Blend.

  8. Slowly mix in the melted chocolate and butter.

  9. Sift the flour, cocoa powder and salt into the wet mixture.

  10. Fold everything together gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

  11. Fold in the chocolate chips or chopped chocolate.

  12. Pour the batter into the prepared tin and spread it evenly.

  13. Decorate with a few chocolate-covered coffee beans, if using.

  14. Bake for approximately 25–30 minutes. The edges should be set while the centre remains slightly soft.

  15. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the tin before slicing.

Rescue Roast® Coffee Tip

Use a strong, concentrated brew and let it cool before adding it to the batter. The coffee enhances the chocolate flavour without making the brownies taste bitter.

For particularly fudgy brownies, remove them from the oven while the centre still appears slightly underbaked. They will continue setting as they cool.

Bold coffee. Serious chocolate. Greater good in every square. ☕🍫🐾
