Ingredients
- 170 grams Unsalted butter, softened
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 grams Brown sugar, packed
- 1 large Egg
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 260 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Instant coffee powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cardamom
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 2
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl and mix until well combined.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, instant coffee powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground cardamom, baking powder, and salt.
Step 4
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Step 5
Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a log roughly 2 inches in diameter. Wrap each log tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight, until firm.
Step 6
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 7
Unwrap the chilled dough logs and slice them into 1/4-inch-thick rounds using a sharp knife. Arrange the slices on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Step 8
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Rotate the baking sheets halfway through for even baking.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. Enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea!
