"ESPRESSO, RYE, CHOCOLATE CHUNK, SEA SALT BROWNIES - flavours that go so well together and you won’t believe how easy they are to make!"

A Note from Feedfeed

These decadent chocolate chunk brownies are layered with flavor. They are not overly sweet, thanks to the bitterness from the dark chocolate and espresso, while rye flour balances the flavor with a nutty and malty taste. This brownie is gooey, chewy, and irresistibly delicious!
