These mocha chocolate brownies are rich, chocolaty and have a hint of coffee in them. My friend Anne shared these brownies with me and although she’s not a coffee drinker this is one of her favorite brownie recipes. She often makes them for parties and they are a big hit. I love chocolate and coffee so they are a big hit with me as well.
I think we both agree it’s the rich creamy frosting that makes these brownies so delicious. The frosting has 1/4 cup of coffee in it and it’s a great way to use up any leftover morning coffee. If your not a coffee drinker like Anne, swing through Mcdonalds drive-thru and pick up a small cup.
These mocha chocolate brownies are rich and decadent and will put a smile on the face of any chocoholic just don’t let your dog eat one or he’ll turn to stone. Chocolate is good for the soul, but not for dogs. Enjoy!
