- 1 stick unsalted butter – melted
- Light brown sugar
- Granulated sugar
- 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 eggs
- Vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 1 3/4 cup All Purpose Flour
- 1/2 tsp. Instant Coffee Granules
- Semi Sweet Mini Chocolate Chips,
- White Chocolate Chips
Baking Tip: The instant coffee granules help bring out the richness in the chocolate and enhances the flavor of the cookie.
Directions
In a large bowl, add the melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, instant coffee granules and salt and mix until well combined.
Add in the eggs and vanilla and beat until creamy.
Mix in the flour and cocoa powder and beat until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips and white chocolate chips.
Baking Instructions
Using a cookie scoop, drop the dough onto your baking trays about 2 inches apart. The dough will NOT spread so if you prefer a pretty, round and flatter cookie then roll it in your hands and press it down before baking.
Otherwise, the cookies will have more of a drop appearance. Top with a few extra chocolate chips for a pretty look if you want.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, making sure you don’t over bake. The first sheet took 9 minutes and the second only took 8 minutes for me. Cool for a few minutes before moving to a cooling rack.
How to Store Homemade Cookies
- Once the cookies are baked and cooled, they can be stored in an air-tight container at room temperature for 3 days.
- Use Parchment Baking Sheets between the layers of cookies in the air-tight container.
How to Freeze Homemade Cookies
- You can easily freeze this recipe! Place scoops of the cookie dough on a parchment lined baking sheet. Then place the baking sheet in the freezer to flash freeze for about 30 minutes.
- Next, place the frozen cookie dough balls in a container or plastic bag until ready to bake.
- Cookie dough balls can be frozen for up to three months.
