Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking pan. (5 minutes)
In a large bowl, combine the brownie mix, egg, vegetable oil, coffee-flavored liqueur, instant coffee granules, and water. (2 minutes)
Stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until just evenly moistened. Be careful not to overmix. (3 minutes)
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading evenly. (1 minute)
Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, approximately 20 minutes. (20 minutes)
Let the brownies cool in the pan for 20 to 30 minutes before cutting into squares and serving. (30 minutes)
