Description

A chewy, chocolate-studded cookie infused with bold espresso flavor, perfect for coffee lovers.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ⅓ cup espresso powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¾ cup salted sweet cream butter, softened
  • ⅔ cup dark brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 extra-large whole egg, room temperature
  • 1 extra-large egg yolk, room temperature
  • 1½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chunks
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, espresso powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat butter with both sugars for about 1½–2 minutes until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla; beat until no streaks remain.
  4. Gradually fold in the dry ingredients until just combined.
  5. Stir in the chocolate chunks and chips. Cover and chill the dough for 30 minutes.
  6. Preheat oven to 350 °F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  7. Scoop 1½‑tablespoon portions, space them 2 inches apart, and bake for 10–12 minutes.
  8. Let them rest on the sheet for 2–3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze dough balls for up to 2 months; bake from frozen with a few extra minutes.
  • Reheat cookies in a 300°F oven for 5 minutes to refresh.
  • Use instant coffee granules if espresso powder is unavailable.
  • Experiment with extracts and chocolate types for variations.
