Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8 pan with foil.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter and dark cocoa powder until smooth.
Beat in granulated sugar, eggs, espresso powder, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
In another bowl, combine salt, baking powder, and flour; gradually mix into the wet ingredients until just combined.
Spread batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-28 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
While cooling, prepare frosting by mixing heavy cream with instant coffee; then beat softened butter and salt before adding powdered sugar and coffee cream until fluffy.
Spread frosting over cooled brownies.
For the chocolate topping, melt dark chocolate chips with heavy cream in the microwave; stir until smooth and spread over frosting.
Allow to set before cutting into squares.
