1.Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line the bottom and two longer sides of a 9" x 5" loaf pan with a piece of parchment paper (we'll wait here for you to dig out that roll from the back of a drawer). While you're at it, break out the butter-you're gonna need it to grease the parchment paper and exposed pan sides.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, espresso powder, and salt.
