- 180 g light brown sugar
- 50 g butter
- 2 large eggs

- 1 shot of espresso
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
Method:
1. Start by preheating your oven to 180 degree celsius.
2. Next, sift the flour in a large bowl. This is to make sure that you just don’t get any lumps, and then you can sift the baking powder and cocoa. Add a pinch of salt, and keep it aside.
3. Then, beat the softened butter, eggs, and sugar together in another bowl until the mixture turns pale. It is good to have the butter on a room temperature, so that it easy to beat the butter.
4. Add some mashed bananas, vanilla, and a strong bit of coffee expresso which will give it a nice coffee mocha flavor to it. Gently mix all these ingredients, and make sure not to spill anything.
5. Then, mix the wet ingredients to the flour and avoid any lumps.
