Ingredients

Espresso Powder

Espresso powder gives these cookies their distinct coffee flavor. It is finely ground coffee that dissolves easily in the dough. For this recipe, you will need 2 tablespoons of high-quality espresso powder to enhance the taste.

All-Purpose Flour

All-purpose flour forms the base of our cookie dough. It provides structure and stability to the cookies. You will need 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour for the best results.

Baking Soda

Baking soda acts as a leavening agent in this recipe. It helps the cookies rise and become soft while maintaining chewiness. Use 1 teaspoon of baking soda for optimal texture.

Salt

Salt enhances the flavors in baked goods by balancing sweetness. A pinch (1/4 teaspoon) of salt is all you need to elevate the overall taste of your espresso cookies.

Unsalted Butter

Unsalted butter adds richness and moisture to the cookie dough. Make sure it is softened at room temperature for easy mixing. You will need 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter for this recipe.

Granulated Sugar

Granulated sugar sweetens the cookie dough and contributes to its crisp edges. For this recipe, use 1/2 cup of granulated sugar to achieve the right level of sweetness.

Brown Sugar

Brown sugar not only adds sweetness but also moisture due to its molasses content. This helps create a chewy texture in our cookies. Use 1/2 cup of packed light brown sugar for best results.

Egg

Eggs bind ingredients together and provide structure to baked goods. One large egg is needed in this recipe to help hold everything together while baking.

Vanilla Extract

Vanilla extract adds depth and warmth to the flavor profile of the cookies. Use 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract for an aromatic touch that complements the espresso beautifully.
