Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 150 grams Brown sugar, packed
- 1 piece Large egg
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 190 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 tablespoons Espresso powder
- 200 grams Milk chocolate, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and espresso powder. Whisk together and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and beat until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be cautious not to overmix.
Fold in the chopped milk chocolate using a spatula until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm with a glass of milk or enjoy them on their own as a delightful treat!
