Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a 7-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy brownie removal.
  2. In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder.
  3. In a heatproof bowl, combine the salted butter, instant coffee powder, and dark chocolate. Melt together using a microwave or double boiler until smooth.
  4. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  5. Slowly pour the cooled chocolate mixture into the sugar and egg mixture, stirring gently to combine.
  6. Fold the sifted flour mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined, then incorporate walnuts and chocolate chips.
  7. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly and topping with reserved walnuts and chocolate chips.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-35 minutes, checking for doneness with a skewer.
  9. Allow the brownies to cool in the baking dish at room temperature before lifting them out and slicing into squares.
