4-Add melted chocolate mixture: On low speed, slowly add the cooled melted chocolate and oil mixture to the bowl, blending it in gradually for a smooth batter.
5-Mix dry ingredients: Add 120 g all-purpose flour, 63 g dutch process cocoa powder, 21 g black cocoa powder, 28 g espresso powder, and ½ teaspoon salt; mix until mostly combined, being careful not to overmix for that perfect chew.
