- In the bowl of a food processor, finely chop the chocolate covered espresso beans. In a medium bowl, whisk together the chopped espresso beans, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt.
- In another medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, 2 tablespoons water and vanilla extract. Gradually add the dry ingredients and stir until thick and smooth. Fold in the melted chocolate. Stir in the chocolate chips. Using a cookie or ice cream scoop, scoop level 1/4 cupfuls of the batter onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake until slightly puffed and the tops begin to crack, 18 to 20 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheets and serve.

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE ESPRESSO COOKIES
Two warnings about these cookies: Don't give them to young children before bedtime and don't leave them lying around, if you want any left for yourself. These cookies are crisp on the edges and have a chewy middle strewn with pockets of soft chocolate. The espresso powder, as Kelsey (The Naptime Chef) noted, amplifies the chocolate, but not the sweetness, making it a grown-up cookie. When making any cookies, make sure to cream the butter really well-this aerates the cookies and integrates the sugar-but be conservative with your mixing once the dry ingredients are added.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at time, mixing after each addition to make sure they are well combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, and espresso powder. I use a whisk to make sure they are well blended.
- With the mixer on low, slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Mix everything until the ingredients are fully combined, but do not overbeat. Using a wooden spoon, stir in the chocolate chips.
- Line a baking sheet with a Silpat mat or parchment paper. Using a 1 1/2-inch ice cream scoop or a rounded teaspoon, drop the dough on the sheet 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the tops look dry. Do not overbake, or the cookies will not be chewy. Cool on a wire rack and serve.

Tips:
- Use good quality chocolate: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies. Look for chocolate with a high cocoa content (70% or higher) for the best results.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies at a high temperature: This will help them rise and set quickly, resulting in a chewy cookie.
- Don't overbake the cookies: Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly. Bake just until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: This will help them keep their shape and texture.
Conclusion:
These double chocolate and espresso cookies are the perfect treat for any chocolate lover. They're rich, chewy, and full of chocolate flavor, with just a hint of espresso to add depth and complexity. Whether you're enjoying them with a cup of coffee or as a sweet snack, these cookies are sure to be a hit.
