So I had a bottle of Kahlúa lying around gathering dust and figured it needed to be put to some decent use. Well, I’m all for a decent cocktail, but I really try not to make a habit of pulling out the shaker in the middle of the day.

I do not think so.

This brownie is rich and crunchy with lots of chocolate, butter and six (!) eggs. The addition of coffee liqueur just gives it a nice bitter taste and really makes it the dessert of any party. If you don’t have Kahlúa, using strong coffee or espresso is a perfect alternative.
