Hazelnut and Coffee Brownies Recipe

• 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup strong, hazelnut flavored coffee (hot)
• 2/3 cup butter, melted
• 2 cups sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 1/3 cups all purpose flour
• 3/4 cup hazelnuts, toasted and chopped
• 3.5 ounce hazelnut chocolate bar, finely chopped

1. Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
2. Lightly grease a 9x11-inch baking pan and set aside.
3. Combine cocoa, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
4. Add coffe, butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla and stir until well combined.
5. Add flour and stir until well combined.
6. Stir in hazelnuts and hazelnut chocolate bar.
7. Pour into prepared pan.
8. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the sides begin to pull away and center is set.
9. Cool on a wire rack and then cut into desired size bars. I often chill my brownies in the fridge for a while to make cutting them even easier.
