- 2 squares unsweetened chocolate
- 1 to 2 Tbsp. ground espresso beans (the finer the grind, the better)

Preparation

- In a saucepan set over medium heat, melt butter with chocolate and espresso. Remove from heat and stir in sugar until dissolved. Beat in eggs, one at a time, then vanilla. Stir in flour and salt just until absorbed.
- Spoon batter into pan. Bake for 40 minutes. They will still be gooey inside. Cool completely, if you can wait, and glaze. Cut into squares and devour!
