Special thanks to today’s sponsor, Door County Coffee. While you are there, check out all the delicious flavors Door County has to offer.
Here is the direct link to Door CountyBrownie Batter Coffee that I used in this recipe! The extra chocolate flavor in the coffee added a nice touch too!
I chose to crush the grounds a bit more. Easy to do by placing the grounds in a plastic resealable bag and rolling my rolling pin over the bag. This finer texture works well in baked goods but as is works just as well!
Coffee Brownies
Sitting down with a mug of freshly brewed Door County Brownie Batter coffee and one of these brownies was a special treat. Of course I saved a bit of brewed coffee for the frosting, too.
