Coffe-and-Cream Chocolate Cappucino Brownies

These cappuccino brownies are perfect for coffee lovers.

The flavors of coffee and cream are sandwiched between a rich chocolate brownie base and a fudgy chocolate frosting.

Decorate each brownie with a roasted coffee bean for an extra special treat!

The traditional cappuccino coffe drink mixes steamed milk with espresso and then tops it off with a milk foam.

The flavor of these brownies mimics the cappuccino flavor by using instant coffee dissolved in whipping cream - which pairs perfectly with the chocolateness of the brownie batter and frosting.

Before serving, you will need to chill these brownies in the pan until the frosting is set.
