This easy Kahlua Brownies recipe uses just a few simple ingredients and take no time at all to make – and you can also make these brownies in a Thermomix!
Now if you are wanting a brownie recipe you can enjoy with the kids, you should stop scrolling now and instead check out these Double Chocolate Chip Brownies instead! This easy Kahlua Brownies recipe is certainly one for the grown ups only, thanks to a good hit of Kahlua in both the brownies and icing.
This recipe is based on my go to chocolate brownie recipe which I’ve experimented with over the years. Yes, you can use a Thermomix to make this recipe, however it’s also incredibly easy to make them conventionally too.
These Kahlua Brownies are rich, soft and very chocolatey (that’s totally a word right?!) so you only need one (ok, maybe two) to satisfy any chocolate cravings. They make a great dessert or treat at your next party, or you could just make a batch to hide in the pantry to enjoy once the kids are in bed – there is no judgement here!!
I’ve included both cooking methods below, and if you try this recipe, I’d love to hear how it goes!
Enjoy!
