Description
Make rich, soft, and chewy chocolate cookies enhanced with a deep espresso flavor for an elevated treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/4 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 2 eggs, room temperature
- 2 1/2 cup flour
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 2 tablespoon instant espresso powder
- 12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- Cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix together dry ingredients: flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, and espresso powder. Whisk to ensure the dry ingredients are well mixed.
- With the mixer on low, slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Mix until the ingredients are fully combined, but do not overbeat. Stir in chocolate chips using a wooden spoon.
- Line a baking sheet with Silpat or parchment paper. Drop dough onto the sheet 2″ apart using a 1 1/2″ ice-cream scoop or rounded teaspoon. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Cool on a wire rack and serve.
Notes
- The espresso intensifies the chocolate flavor without making the cookie taste like coffee.
- These cookies are perfect for pairing with a cup of coffee during a quiet moment.
