Best brownies ever!!

These are seriously the best brownies I've ever made or eaten, they're phenomenal! I forgot to take a picture and by the time I remembered we'd eaten them all. I don't mean to toot my own horn, but beep, beep!

Original recipe
, my adaptation:

In a medium saucepan boil together
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons water
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon instant coffee

Remove from heat and stir in 3/4 of a 12 oz bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks.

Beat 2 eggs, add some chocolate mix into the eggs to temper them, add warmed eggs to chocolate mixture and mix well. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.

Gently stir in 2/3 cup flour, 1/4 tea baking soda, and 1/4 tea salt. Mix to combine, do NOT over stir.

Pour into a greased and cocoa-ed 8 x 8 pan. Bake at 325 for 25 minutes, checking last 10 minutes for done-ness. Let cool on the counter in pan for a couple of hours before cutting.

These brownies are very rich and fudgey! I was able to get 20 small pieces.
