Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.5 tablespoons Instant espresso powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to ensure everything is evenly combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, instant espresso powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips using a spatula.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, portion out rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. Enjoy with a cup of coffee or a tall glass of milk!
