Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8'x8' metal baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate. Heat in 20-second intervals until melted and smooth.
  3. Whisk in granulated sugar and light brown sugar until combined, then add vanilla extract and eggs one at a time, whisking thoroughly after each addition.
  4. Gently fold in all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder (if using), and sea salt until just combined.
  5. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  6. For the ganache, heat heavy cream until simmering, pour over chopped chocolate, let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and cool.
  7. Cut cooled brownies into circles about 1.5-1.75 inches in diameter.
  8. Whip the cooled ganache until light and fluffy, then pipe generously onto each brownie bite.
