Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon instant coffee granules (adjust to taste)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Dissolve instant coffee granules in 1 tablespoon of hot water. Add dissolved coffee and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips if using.
- Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each cookie slightly.
- Bake in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden. Cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
