1 stick butter
2 ½ oz unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
¼ cup flour
¼ tsp salt
½ tsp ground cardamom
1 ½ tbs instant espresso

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Grease and flour an 8” square pan. Shake out excess flour.

Melt the butter and chocolate in a 3 qt saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat; cool slightly. Stir in sugar, eggs, and vanilla.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt, cardamom and coffee. Stir into the chocolate mixture, combining just until the flour disappears. DO NOT OVER STIR!

Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool the pan on a wire rack completely before cutting into squares.

Serve with your favorite coffee, cappuccino or espresso!
