Get the Recipe: Coffee Cookies
These coffee cookies are warmly spiced, gooey and delicious! The espresso powder adds such a rich, deep flavor. This recipe is quick, easy, and incredibly flavorful!
Ingredients
- ½ cup cold butter
- ⅓ cup white granulated sugar
- ⅔ cup light brown sugar, tightly packed
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups flour, gluten free 1 to 1 or all purpose
- ½ tsp baking soda
- pinch sea salt
- 2 tsp espresso powder
- ⅔ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, add cold butter, white sugar and brown sugar. Beat for 2 minutes or until no clumps of butter remain.
- Then, add in egg and vanilla extract. Beat to combine.
- Add in flour, baking soda, sea salt and espresso powder. Stir until a thick dough is formed.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Use an ice cream scooper to scoop large balls of dough onto lined pan. Leave at least 3 inches of space between each ball of dough.
- Bake for 9 to 10 minutes or until cookies are just barely set in the middle.
- Finally, remove from oven. Allow cookies to cool on pan for 10 minutes. Then, carefully remove to a cooling rack. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired.
Notes
- This recipe makes 10 large cookies or 14 to 15 regular sized cookies.
- Use cold butter right from the fridge. Softened or melted butter will make these cookies too thin.
- Beat butter and sugars until completely combined. There should be no clumps of butter.
- The cookie dough is relatively thick.
- Feel free to use less espresso powder for a less intense flavor. These cookies are flavorful; I would not recommend adding more espresso powder.
- Bake until cookies are just barely set in the middle. They will firm up slightly once cooled.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
- These cookies freeze well.
