Walnut Fudge Brownies

• 6 ounces, weight Semi Or Bittersweet Chocolate Chips
• 1/2 cups Flour
• 1/4 cups Cocoa Powder
• 1 teaspoon Instant Espresso Granules
• 1/2 teaspoons Sea Salt
• 8 Tablespoons Butter, cut into pieces
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 2 whole Large Eggs
• 3/4 cups Sugar
• 1 cup Walnuts, Chopped (optional)

1. Preheat oven to 350u0b0F. Grease an 8-inch square glass baking pan; set aside. Measure out 1/4 cup of the chocolate chips and set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, espresso powder and salt; set aside.
2. Add the remaining chocolate chips to a medium bowl with the butter. Cook on high power in the microwave for 60 to 90 seconds (depending on how powerful your microwave is-mine is 1000 watts) until chocolate and butter are melted. Add the vanilla extract to the bowl and stir to combine; set aside.
3. Add the eggs and sugar into a clean, large bowl. Whisk until thick and pale yellow. Whisk in the melted chocolate mixture. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the flour mixture and remaining chocolate chips. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Evenly sprinkle chopped nuts over the top, if using, and press very gently into the batter. Bake for 40 minutes until the center is set and the edges gently pull away from the sides of the pan. Let cool completely before cutting.
