I sure hope you’re in the mood for chocolate today. Me? I’m always in the mood for chocolate. Especially brownies. Especially mocha truffle brownies with a chocolate ganache frosting. Kind of like these.
It’s been awhile since I made brownies from scratch. I’ll be honest, I think the box mixes are pretty darn good 🙂 But when the recipe is as easy as this one, it’s hard to find an excuse not to make them.
I’m extremely partial to mocha recipes. It might stem from the fact that mochas are also my favorite hot beverage or it could be that the coffee really intensifies the chocolate flavor, making it even more rich and fabulous. Probably both.
This recipe makes a lot of brownies, perfect for a party, pot luck, or when you really just need to binge and chocolate is the only thing you want.
