How to Make Kahlua Brownie Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips in a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring frequently until smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in 2 cups granulated sugar, 4 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup Kahlua.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let cool completely in the pan before frosting.
- **Frosting:**
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules and 2 tablespoons Kahlua until the coffee is dissolved.
- In a medium bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter and 3 cups powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the coffee mixture and beat until well combined.
- Gradually add 2-4 tablespoons milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired frosting consistency.
- Spread frosting evenly over the cooled brownies.
- Cut into bars and enjoy!
