Cappuccino Brownies

I think the picture is also representative, but imagine the perfect chocolate cake - strong taste of chocolate, butter, coffee and cinnamon flavor - what else.... All the ingredients fit perfectly, the top it is more consistent and the crunchy nuts give it a special note.

So if you want to "take down" guests or family, I highly recommend this cake :)

Just an observation, the basic recipe is for a 20x20cm tray (so the ingredients below are for a 20x20 tray), I made a double portion because I have a larger tray and .... uff, yes - I wanted it so much for a long time with her that I wanted to do a lot, a lot, to get tired :)

Stir until it becomes a homogeneous composition, remove from the heat and allow to cool until warm. I poured it from the pan into a bowl in which I made the dough, so it cools even faster.
