4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 teaspoons espresso powder

simmering water. Once they are almost completely melted, stir in cocoa powder
and espresso powder. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
3. Using a hand or stand mixer, beat eggs to break up and then gradually add the
sugar. Mix until light and thickened, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add vanilla; beat until
well combined.
4. Stir the flour and salt into the cooled chocolate mixture; mix until just
incorporated. fold the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and stir until the
mixture is no longer streaky.
5. Pour into prepared pan. Bake for about 22 to 25 minutes, or until edges are just
dry. These are the best after chilling overnight.
