Pour into a pan and put it in the preheated oven. Check after 20 minutes in the oven. They will probably need to cook for closer to 30 minutes, but you DON'T want to overcook these, so start keeping an eye on them at 20 minutes. (Cooking time with vary with the size of pan you use as well.) To test for doneness, insert a toothpick into the brownies. If it comes out gooey, and if roll your finger over the toothpick and the pick is moist and the brownie forms a ball, they are ready.

Note: if the mixture seems a bit thick or dry, you can add a little bit more coffee or water, but I like mine dense and rich. If you don't want it as rich, you can substitute water for the coffee.
