The coffee flavor is very strong. Overall, I liked the taste, although I might cut back on the Kahlua and/or espresso if I were to make again. I baked the full 12 minutes and they still seemed underbaked, even for brownies. The problem I had was that, even when they were fully cooled, the brownies still really stuck to the paper liners. Despite liking the taste, I'm not sure I'd make these again when there are so many other good recipes out there.
