Brownies (Scratch and Mix)

1 stick butter
6 ounces dark or bittersweet chocolate (Trader Joes 72%) chopped
2 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 tablespoon coffee
1 teaspoon espresso granules
3/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt if using unsalted butter

Preheat to 350 - Spray the brownie pan with cooking spray.

In a microwave safe bowl melt the butter and chocolate, add the sugar and vanilla and coffee.  Cool a little and then add the eggs.  Add the flour and mix well.  Bake for 12 - 14 minutes.  Toothpick should come out almost clean.     

When using a mix, I bake at 325 for about 25 minutes when I use my 12 square individual brownie pan.
