Thanks bunsinmyoven!!
One word of warning: cut these into SMALL pieces. You will not be able to just eat a normal-sized piece - don't get too ambitious or you'll find yourself in sugar shock. They are not overly sweet, just the combination of the chocolate base, chocolate chips and espresso make for various layers and levels of richness.
THANK YOU for posting this recipe!
my brother recently began making just straight caffeinated brownies. (shady, I know; what's even more shady is that he plans to sell them at college. and what's even MORE shady is that the caffeine is just a white powder that he adds to the brownies. aaaand the shadiest of all is that he transferred the caffeine from the hard to use [but official lookng] bag to an easier to use but much shadier tupperware container with hand-written "caffeine" label on it. completely legal, but it looks reeeaal sketchy.) they're actually really good; the caffeine gives them a kind of dark chocolate bitterness, and as one of my friends described it, they make you feel "amazing." I think that has something to do with the fact that the brownie makes it kind of a slow-release type thing.
(that rant turned out longer than expected. sorry about that.)
