Ingredients
Brownies:
Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons instant espresso powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted but not hot
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
3/4 cup chopped toasted walnuts, plus more for topping
Glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon brewed coffee or 1/4 teaspoon espresso powder plus 1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
Pinch kosher salt
Sprinkles, for topping
Directions
- For the brownies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8-inch square pan with cooking spray and line with parchment paper, allowing 1-inch wings to hang over the edges.
- Whisk together the granulated sugar, flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, cardamom, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together the butter, vanilla and eggs in a medium bowl. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir to combine. Fold in the walnuts.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly (it will be quite a thin layer). Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Cool in the pan on a rack for 10 minutes, then lift out of the pan and place on the rack to cool completely.
- For the glaze: Whisk together the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, butter, coffee, honey, vanilla, cardamom and salt in a medium bowl until smooth.
- Pour the glaze on the cooled brownie, spread it around and top with walnuts and sprinkles. Let dry, then cut into squares.
