Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Instant coffee powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cups Unsalted butter (softened)
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Brown sugar (packed)
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups Dark chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons Coarse or turbinado sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, instant coffee powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 6

Fold in the dark chocolate chips using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading. If desired, sprinkle the tops with a pinch of coarse or turbinado sugar for an extra crunch.

Step 8

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden, and the centers look slightly underbaked. Do not overbake for a soft, chewy texture.

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Enjoy your Cafe Coffee Cookies with a warm cup of coffee or milk!
