Ingredients

  • 1 pkg. fudge brownie mix
  • 2 tablespoons instant espresso coffee powder
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 oz. (3/4 cup) mocha candy beans

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottom only of 13x9-inch pan.
  • 2
    In large bowl, combine brownie mix, espresso powder, oil, water, and eggs; beat 50 strokes with spoon. Spread batter in greased pan. Sprinkle evenly with mocha candy beans.
  • 3
    Bake at 350°F. for 28 to 30 minutes. DO NOT OVERBAKE. Cool 1 hour or until completely cooled. Cut into bars.

  • Not to be confused with chocolate-covered coffee beans, mocha beans are coffee-flavored candy beans. The candies are available at specialty cooking stores, candy shops and coffee shops.
  • If you can't find mocha beans, use chocolate chips in their place and increase the instant espresso powder to 3 tablespoons.
  • Served with a scoop of ice cream, these brownies become an even more delicious dessert. Cut brownies about twice as long as the recipe indicates; place them on individual plates and top with ice cream. To go all out, drizzle the brownies and ice cream with chocolate sauce and sprinkle a few extra mocha candy beans on each plate.
