Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
- ⅓ cup espresso powder (e.g., Delallo)
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ¾ cup salted sweet cream butter (12 tbsp, softened)
- ⅔ cup dark brown sugar
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 1 extra-large egg (room temperature)
- 1 extra-large egg yolk (room temperature)
- 1½ tsp pure vanilla extract
- 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chunks (e.g., Nestle Toll House)
- 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.
