  6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.
  7. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow the brownies to cool in the pan on a wire rack.

For the Coffee Frosting:

  1. Dissolve the instant coffee granules in 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl.
  2. In another bowl, cream together the softened butter and sifted confectioners’ sugar until smooth.
  3. Mix in the dissolved coffee until the frosting is well combined and smooth.
  4. Spread the frosting evenly over the cooled brownies.
