Eggless Coffee Cocoa Brownies

Today's Brownie is again made with cocoa powder enhanced with the taste of coffee. Even while making the batter, I wanted to taste and see how it would taste once baked.

Its again a hurried post as an unexpected trip got planned and now have to carry the brownie infact for cake cutting. Its going to be my niece's birthday and Hubby dear insisted on a homemade cake. Hence the picture as whole and not sliced! And imagine I baked it in a hurry this morning and still have two more to be baked in the evening!

I was checking out the bookmarked list I had and was inspired by this. It surely looks all dark and sinful. Can't wait to taste it once its sliced!
