Time 31m

Yield 10 to 12 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces (recommended: Ghirardelli)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/3 cup dark chocolate-covered espresso beans
1 cup flour
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE ESPRESSO COOKIES



Double Chocolate Espresso Cookies image

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.

Yield Makes 50-55 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

18 tablespoons (2 1/4 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 cup light brown sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons instant espresso powder, like Medaglia D'Oro, or similar
12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips

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.

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 squares (1 oz. each) unsweetened chocolate, chopped
2 c semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
1 stick butter, cubed
1 Tbsp instant coffee or espresso powder
1 c plus 2 tablespoons, sugar
3 eggs
3/4 c all purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt

Steps:

  • 1. In a small saucepan, melt the unsweetened chocolate, 1 cup of the semi-sweet chocolate chips, the butter, and the instant coffee or espresso powder. Stir until smooth. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  • 2. In a mixing bowl, beat the sugar and eggs together for 3 minutes, until thick & lemon colored. Add the chocolate mixture and beat together. Combine the flour, baking powder & salt, and add to mixture. Stir in the remaining cup of chocolate chips.
  • 3. Drop by heaping teaspoonfuls, about 2 in. apart, on to a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for about 9-12 minutes (mine took about 9 1/2 min.), or until puffed and cracked on top. Let cool about 5 minutes, then remove to wire rack to finish cooling.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A combination of semisweet and bittersweet chocolate works well.
  • Do not overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will give them a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
  • Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
