Breakfast Brownies

8 oz semi-sweet chocolate
1/2 c unsalted butter
1 tbsp powdered instant coffee
2 large eggs
1 1/2 c firmly packed light brown sugar
1 1/2 c flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 c old fashioned rolled oats
1/4 c chopped almonds


Preheat oven to 375° and butter and flour a 9X13 pan.

In a double boiler over hot water, melt chocolate and butter. Stir in instant coffee and then allow mixture to cool.

In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs until they are foamy and lemon colored. Beat in sugar and continue beating until it is thick and smooth. Beat egg/sugar mixture into cooled chocolate mixture.

Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together. Stir this and oatmeal into chocolate mixture. When it is almost completely mixed, add nuts.

Spread into 9 by 13 pan and bake for approximately 30 minutes. It should be firm on top and a cake tester should come out almost clean. Cool, then cut.
