Categories     dessert

Time 1h45m

Yield 2 to 3 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, coarsely chopped
2 teaspoons instant espresso powder, such as Medaglia D'Oro
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, slightly softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup toasted pecans, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup best-quality white chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Place the bittersweet and unsweetened chocolate and espresso powder in a medium bowl and place over a pot of simmering water and melt, whisking occasionally, until smooth. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt onto a piece of parchment or wax paper, or into a small bowl, and set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, granulated sugar and light brown sugar until lightly and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, then the vanilla extract, and beat on high speed for 1 minute. On low speed beat in the melted chocolate mixture until just combined. Fold in the flour mixture with a rubber spatula until just combined. Stir in the pecans and chips. The batter will be loose. Cover and refrigerate until just firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Using a small ice cream scoop (about 1 tablespoon size), scoop heaping tablespoons of the batter onto the prepared baking sheets, putting 8 cookies on each sheet. Bake for 10 to 11 minutes. The surface will be dry and shiny but the tops and insides will still be soft. It will take no longer than 10 to 11 minutes so set the time. Cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes, then remove to a rack to cool 5 minutes longer. Repeat with the remaining batter. These cookies are best eaten the day they are made. Wrap leftovers well in plastic wrap and store in an airtight container.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE ESPRESSO BEAN COOKIES



Triple Chocolate Espresso Bean Cookies image

This is one of my favorite cookie recipes. The dough can be frozen and used later, if you don't want to make them all at once. Just place balls of the cookie dough into freezer bags and toss them in the freezer. Bake them straight from the freezer, increasing the baking time by a couple of minutes to compensate for the frozen dough.

Time 25m

Yield 2-3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
2 tablespoons espresso powder (freshly ground)
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon sea salt (finely ground)
1/2 cup cocoa powder (not dutched)

3 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
8 ounces chocolate-covered coffee beans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven 375°F.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together whole-wheat pastry flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream the butter until light and fluffy. Add in the sugar and beat until the mixture is a thick, frosting-like consistency. Add in the eggs, one at a time, making sure each egg is incorporated before adding in the next one. Add in the vanilla and mix until it is incorporated.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring after each addition until the flour is incorporated. The dough should be moist and uniformly brown.
  • Stir in the espresso beans and chocolate chips by hand, mixing just until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

  • Bake for about 10 minutes on the middle rack. Don't overbake or they will dry out. It's best to underbake them just a bit.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE ESPRESSO BEAN COOKIE RECIPE



TRIPLE CHOCOLATE ESPRESSO BEAN COOKIE RECIPE image

Categories     Egg

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 1/2 cups whole-wheat pastry flour
2 tablespoons freshly ground espresso powder
3/4 teaspoon aluminum-free baking soda
3/4 teaspoon aluminum-free baking powder
3/4 teaspoon finely ground sea salt
1/2 cup natural cocoa or cacao powder (Scharffen Berger or Dagoba), not dutched
1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature (soft to the touch)
2 cups fine-grain natural granulated sugar (evaporated cane sugar) - for example, I love Alter-eco brand, OR do 1 1/2 cups sugar + 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2 large eggs
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
8 ounces chocolate covered espresso beans
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
Assemble dry ingredients: In a medium bowl whisk together the whole wheat pastry flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cacao powder. Set aside.
Assemble the wet ingredients: In a big bowl or with an electric mixer beat the butter until it is fluffy and lightens a bit in color. Now beat in the sugar - it should have a thick frosting-like consistency. Mix in the eggs one at a time, making sure the first egg gets incorporated before adding the next. You will need to scrape down the sides of the bowl once or twice as well. Add the vanilla and mix until it is incorporated.

Steps:

  • Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients: Add the dry ingredients to the wet mix in about four waves. Stir a bit between each addition until the flour is just incorporated. You could add all the flour at once, but it tends to explode up and out of the mixing bowl and all over me every time I do that. At this point you should have a moist, brown dough that is uniform in color. Stir in the espresso beans and chocolate chips by hand and mix only until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough. Drop the cookies onto baking sheets: I like to make these cookies medium in size (they are rich!) - and use roughly one heaping tablespoons of dough for each one. I leave the dough balls rough and raggy looking - I never roll them into perfect balls or anything like that - this way each cookie will have a bit of unique personality. Place the cookies in the oven: Bake at 375 degrees for about 10 minutes on the middle rack. You don't want to over bake these cookies at all or they will really dry out. If anything, under bake them just a bit. When they are done, pull them out to cool. Tip: If you don't want to bake all the cookies at one once you can freeze some of the dough for quick cookies later. Instead of placing the cookies in the oven put the cookie dough balls into a freezer-quality plastic bag and toss them in the freezer. You can bake straight from the freezer at a later date, up the baking time by a couple minutes to compensate for the frozen dough.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor. Semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate chips are a good choice.
  • If you don't have espresso beans, you can substitute chopped walnuts or pecans.
  • To make the cookies even more chocolatey, you can add a tablespoon of cocoa powder to the dough.
  • Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just set and the centers are still slightly soft. This will give you a chewy cookie with a gooey center.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cookies to firm up.

Conclusion:

These triple chocolate espresso bean cookies are the perfect treat for any chocolate lover. They're rich, chewy, and full of flavor. Plus, they're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're in the mood for a sweet treat, give these cookies a try!
