Layered Mocha Brownies

All that said, the caffè mocha looks a close relative to bicerin or marocchino, when it's rich in dark coffee and more similar to caffè macchiato (spotted coffee) when prepared with more milk.

Recipe Summary Layered Mocha Brownies

I needed a special dessert but couldn't decide what to make. This dessert was born of my favorite flavors: mocha, cream cheese, and chocolate. I promise it will not disappoint! Garnish with espresso powder, chocolate shavings, and chopped nuts.

Ingredients | Caffè Mocha Similar Foods

cooking spray

1 (18.25 ounce) package brownie mix (such as Betty Crocker®)

½ cup vegetable oil

2 eggs

3 tablespoons water

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

2 tablespoons coffee concentrate (such as Cool Brew®)

4 cups whipped topping, divided

4 cups whole milk

2 (3.9 ounce) packages instant chocolate pudding mix

2 tablespoons chopped walnuts, or to taste

2 tablespoons shaved dark chocolate, or to taste

½ teaspoon espresso powder, or to taste

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.

Combine brownie mix, vegetable oil, eggs, and water in a large bowl. Mix with a wooden spoon until well blended. Spread into the prepared baking pan.

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted 2 inches from the side of the pan comes out clean, 22 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, and coffee in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Beat in 1 cup whipped topping. Spread over cooled brownies and refrigerate while preparing pudding.

Whisk milk and instant chocolate pudding in a large bowl until smooth, about 2 minutes. Let stand until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.

Spread pudding over the cream cheese layer. Spread remaining whipped topping over the pudding layer. Garnish with walnuts, chocolate shavings, and espresso powder. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

The directions for making the brownies are based on the particular brand mentioned. Follow instructions on the box if using a different brand.
