    WHY THIS RECIPE WORKS

    • Easy to make: These cookies are so easy to make, and only needs a bowl and a spatula.
    • Crispy edges and soft center: These cookies are thick and have the best soft center and perfectly crispy edges.
    • Espresso: These cookies are full of espresso flavor, make for the perfect cookie for any coffee lover.

    INGREDIENT NOTES

    These are some of the key ingredients for this recipe. For a full list of ingredients, check out the recipe card below.

    • Espresso powder: Use any instant coffee powder for the most amount of flavor. I use Nescafe Gold espresso powder as it dissolves quickly and as a great flavor as it's 100% arabica coffee.
    • Butter: The butter is browed before cooled down to room temperature.
    • Brown sugar: The brown sugar gives more moister to the cookie dough, which makes for a more soft and chewy texture.
    • Chocolate: Use semi-sweet dark chocolate. Use either a bloc or chocolate chips.

    STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS

    Here is how make and bake these Espresso Cookie. This recipe only needs an spatula and a bowl.

    The full recipe is down below in the recipe card.

    STEP 1: In a medium sized saucepan add the butter and brown it over medium/high heat, takes about 8-10 minutes. Add the instant espresso powder and stir it together. Pour it into a bowl and let it cool down till room temperature.

    STEP 2: Once the butter is room temperature add the brown sugar and granulated sugar and stir it together for about 1 minute. Add the egg and vanilla and mix it in.

    STEP 3: Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and fold it together until just combined. Chop the semi-sweet chocolate and fold it into the batter.

    STEP 4: Using a 2 tbsp/ 1.3 ounce (about 57 g) cookie scoop, scoop out 11 cookie dough balls. Place the pre-scooped cookie dough in the fridge and let them sit in the fridge for 2 hours or overnight.

    30 minutes before baking, preheat the oven to 175ºC/ 350ºF conventional oven. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    STEP 5: Once the 2 hours have passed, add 6 cookie dough to a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake them for 10-12 minutes. Keep the other cookies in the refrigerator while the others bake. Once baked, let them cool down on the baking tray for 5 minutes as they still will be soft when they are done.  After they have cooled down a bit, use a spatula to lift them onto a cooling rack. To finish them off, sprinkle them with flaky sea salt.

    EXPERT BAKING TIPS

    • Use a kitchen scale: My default setting for my recipes is grams and it is the most precise way of measuring out your ingredients.
    • Don't over bake the cookies: Over baking the cookies, will make them dry. You want to rather underbake them slightly to get a soft and chewy cookie. They will continue baking when they are taken out of the oven and are still on the baking pan cooling down.
    • Light vs. dark baking pans: For the best result, use an aluminum baking pan, lined with baking paper in the bottom. Aluminum pan are light in color and therefore attracts less heat which means they bake more gently bake which results in a softer cookie. If you use a e.g. a black baking tray it'll attract a lot more heat, which will then give a darker and crispier cookie.

    FAQ

    Can I make the dough a day ahead?

    Yes, scoop the cookie dough into balls and place them in an airtight container or cover them with plastic wrap, then store the cookie balls in the fridge overnight. Bake the cookies as instructed in the recipe.

    Can I freeze my cookie dough?

    Scoop the cookie dough into balls and store them in an airtight container. You can store them in the freezer for up to 30 days. Let the cookie ball thaw before baking them as instructed in the recipe.

    Can I make them into smaller cookies?

    Yes, absolutely. Use a smaller cookie scoop and scoop out 14 cookies and bake them for 8-10 minutes.

    STORAGE

    Store the chocolate chip coffee cookies in a cookie jar or an airtight container. They are best enjoyed within a few days.
