Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoon instant espresso powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 oz chopped semi-sweet chocolate
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Using a mixer, cream together softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs and vanilla extract. Mix to combine, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Slowly add dry ingredients to butter mixture. Mix just until combined.
- Gently fold in chopped chocolate and chocolate chips.
- Scoop 2-tablespoon sized portions and place them at least 2” apart on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake at 350˚ for 10 minutes or until edges are lightly golden and just barely set.
- Then tap the baking sheet on the counter to sink the centers.
- Run a large round cookie cutter around each cookie to reshape.
- Return cookies to the oven for an additional 3 minutes or until golden brown.
- Cool completely on the baking tray, then sprinkle with sea salt.
- Remove cookies with a thin metal spatula.
Notes
- Overworking the dough will result in hard (not chewy) cookies.
- Shaping helps the cookies turn out perfectly round.
- For more coffee flavor, substitute half the vanilla extract with coffee extract.
