Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons instant coffee granules
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, instant coffee granules, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, using a hand or stand mixer, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, and mix until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing at low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
If using mini chocolate chips, gently fold them into the dough with a spatula.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Using the back of a fork, gently flatten each ball of dough to form a slightly compressed disc.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers will look slightly soft, which is fine as they will firm up as they cool.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
