Espresso and Chocolate Chip Cookies

Espresso and Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

These are hands down the best cookie I have ever eaten (and I've eaten a LOT of cookies!). How can you go wrong with three types of chocolate and coffee? These make a fudgy-brownie type cookie with amazing results. The original recipe called for finely chopped espresso beans, but I tweaked this by using instant coffee for ease and flavor. Try these, I promise you will LOVE them!

Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
  • 5 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 3/4 cups sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 3 tablespoons instant coffee
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • In medium saucepan, combine bittersweet chocolate, unsweetened chocolate, and butter; heat and stir over low heat until mixture is melted and smooth. Remove from heat and cool for about 10 minutes.
  • In large bowl, combine sugar, eggs, and coffee; beat with electric mixer on medium to high speed for 2 or 3 minutes or until well mixed and color becomes slightly lighter. Add cooled melted chocolate, beating until combined. In a small bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to chocolate mixture; beat until combined. Stir in chocolate pieces. At this point, the dough will look like brownie batter.
  • Cover dough with wax paper and let stand at room temperature for 20 minutes so that dough can thicken.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F
  • Line cookie sheets with parchment paper, silicone, or foil. Scoop 3 ounces of dough per cookie (use 3 tablespoons of dough if you do not have a 3 oz scoop) in mounds 2 inches apart on cookie sheets.
  • Bake in preheated oven about 13 minutes, or until tops are set and the cracks on top do not appear moist. Do not attempt to cook these in a cold oven - they do not turn out well. Let cookies cool on cookie sheet for one minute before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
