Ingredients
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup cream cheese, softened
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon instant coffee powder, dissolved in 1 tablespoon hot water
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, cream cheese, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, and beat until smooth.
- Prepare the Chocolate and Coffee Swirl: Divide the dough into two equal parts. Stir in the dissolved coffee into one half, and fold in the melted chocolate into the other half.
- Form the Cookies: Take small amounts of both doughs, press them together to form a marbled ball, and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie.
- Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve: Enjoy with a cup of coffee!
Notes
Storage: Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
Customization: Feel free to substitute the chocolate chips or adjust the coffee level to suit your taste.
