Ingredients

Scale
  1. 2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
  2. ⅓ cup espresso powder (e.g., Delallo)
  3. 1 tsp baking soda
  4. ½ tsp baking powder
  5. ½ tsp kosher salt
  6. ¾ cup salted sweet cream butter (12 tbsp, softened)
  7. ⅔ cup dark brown sugar
  8. ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  9. 1 extra-large egg (room temperature)
  10. 1 extra-large egg yolk (room temperature)
  11. 1½ tsp pure vanilla extract
  12. 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chunks (e.g., Nestle Toll House)
  13. 1 cup dark chocolate chips (e.g., Hershey’s)

Instructions

  • Mix the Dry Ingredients:
    In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, espresso powder, baking soda, baking powder, and kosher salt.
  • Cream Butter and Sugars:
    Using a stand mixer or handheld mixer on medium-high speed, beat the softened butter, dark brown sugar, and granulated sugar until well combined (1½ to 2 minutes).
  • Add Wet Ingredients:
    Mix in the whole egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until no streaks remain.
  • Incorporate Dry Ingredients:
    Gradually add half of the flour mixture, mixing until just combined. Repeat with the remaining flour mixture.
  • Add Chocolate:
    Stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chunks and dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  • Chill the Dough:
    Cover the dough and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheets:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Shape and Bake:
    Use a 1½-tablespoon cookie scoop to portion out the dough, placing cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared sheets. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are golden and the centers are set.
  • Cool the Cookies:
    Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 2–3 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a stronger coffee flavor, increase the espresso powder slightly.
  • Chill the dough longer for thicker cookies.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
