Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9-inch square baking pan with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, whisk together the first five ingredients and set aside.

In a microwave on Low or 50 percent power, melt chocolate squares, stirring often to avoid burning. Cool for about 5 minutes, then whisk in sugar, oil, coffee, eggs, and vanilla extract.

Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
