Hello everyone!
I'm here to introduce my Fudgy Coffee Walnut Brownie with Ganache and Chocolate Montée Cream.
I've been in pastry for over 10 years now, and to be honest, brownies are so common that I often overlooked them on the menu. But this time, I wanted to level it up a bit and show you how to give it a cool, refined twist. Hehe 😄
This rich brownie has coffee, toasted walnuts, dark chocolate ganache, and chocolate décor, and as you’ll see in the video, even a simple brownie can become something really special. Let me know if you give it a try!
