- 120 g dark chocolate

How to Make Beetroot and Coffee Brownies
Peel the beetroot and grate it on a coarse grater. You can prepare the batter ingredients in a blender, food processor, or by mixing them manually.
Crack two chicken eggs into a bowl. Add a pinch of fine salt.
Mix the eggs with the beetroot. Add the powdered sugar or fine white granulated sugar to the bowl. If you are using granulated sugar, let the mixture sit for a few minutes at this stage to allow the sugar crystals to dissolve.
Next, add the instant coffee. The more aromatic the coffee, the more pronounced the flavor of the finished bake will be.
Melt the dark chocolate and butter in a water bath or in the microwave. Add the melted ingredients to the batter.
Stir in the all-purpose flour and unsweetened cocoa powder.
Next, I recommend blending everything until you have a smooth, liquid batter. This type of batter makes the best brownies.
Grease the cups of a muffin tin with soft butter and dust with flour, tapping out any excess. Pour the batter into the cups, filling them to about 1-2 centimeters (about half an inch) from the top. By the way, for an even more delicious treat, you can place a small piece of chocolate into each cup filled with batter at this stage!
Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F). Place the tin on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. The brownies are ready when the tops are set with a light crust, but the inside remains moist and slightly underbaked. Let the brownies cool completely in the tin before transferring them to paper liners. Melt the white chocolate in a water bath or in the microwave. Decorate the brownies with the melted chocolate. If you baked the brownie in a single pan, let it cool to room temperature, then cut it into squares with a serrated knife and decorate as described.
While the white chocolate glaze is still wet, sprinkle the brownies with green konditerskaya vermishel (sprinkles) and they are ready to be served immediately.
And there you have it—perfectly moist and flavorful Beetroot and Coffee Brownies! We hope you enjoy this unique and delicious twist on a classic. These brownies are wonderful on their own, but for an extra touch of indulgence, try serving them warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of cream cheese frosting. Don't hesitate to share this surprising treat with friends and family; it's a great conversation starter! Happy baking, and enjoy every single bite.
