Ingredients
Brownies
- 200 g unsalted butter
- 200 g dark chocolate
- 275 g light brown soft sugar
- 4 medium eggs
- 100 g plain flour
- 50 g cocoa powder
Filling
- 175 g sponge fingers
- 100 ml strong black coffee
- 50 ml coffee liqueur
Topping
- 250 g full-fat mascarpone
- 250 ml double cream
- 3 tbsp icing sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 50 ml coffee liqueur
Instructions
Brownie
- Preheat the oven to 180ºc/160ºc fan and line a 9x9" square tin with parchment paper and leave to the side for now.
- Add the dark chocolate and butter to a bowl, and melt the two together until smooth. I do this in the microwave. Leave to cool for 5-10 minutes
- In a new bowl, add the sugar and eggs and whisk together for a couple of minutes until doubled in volume, and mousse like
- Fold through the cooled butter/chocolate mixture and then fold through the plain flour and cocoa powder
- Pour the mixture into the lined tin and then bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes until there is a slight wobble in the middle. Remove from the oven.
Filling
- Mix together the strong black coffee and coffee liqueur
- Dunk each sponge finger into the coffee mixture for a few seconds and add on top of the brownie
- Completely cover the top of the brownie in soaked sponge fingers
Topping
- Add the mascarpone, cream, sugar, vanilla and coffee liqueur to a bowl
- Whisk together to combine and then thicken the mixture. It needs to be thick and spreadable ideally, just make sure to not over whisk so check often.
- Carefully spread evenly over the top of the sponge fingers.
- Set the brownies in the fridge overnight.
- Once set, dust the top with cocoa powder, and slice up and enjoy.
Notes
- I use a 9" square tin for this recipe
- These last for 3-4+ days in the fridge
- You can freeze these for 3+ months
- I'd recommend using dark chocolate of 70% cocoa content for the best bake
- Make sure to use full-fat ingredients in the topping especially to make sure it sets
- The alcohol is optional, you can leave it out of the topping mix, and increase the coffee mix for the sponge fingers
- You can add chocolate chips to the brownie mixture if you want - 100-200g worth would be tasty
