Dive into Espresso Fudge Cookies: where rich coffee meets sweet indulgence! Perfect for coffee lovers.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
¾ cup brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 tbsp finely ground espresso beans
1 ½ cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a larger bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and creamy.
4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract and ground espresso beans.
5. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined.
6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
7. Using a cookie scoop or a spoon, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set but the center is still soft.
9. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
For an added texture, consider mixing in some chopped walnuts or pecans.
Be careful not to overbake; the cookies will continue to set as they cool.
Using high-quality cocoa powder will enhance the overall taste and richness of the cookies.
