Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter (at room temperature)
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 2 teaspoons brewed black coffee (can be instant coffee)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 2.5 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2–3 teaspoons dry ground coffee granules (instant coffee or espresso powder can be substituted)

Add-ins

  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate chunks or chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather and measure all ingredients to ensure smooth workflow through the recipe.
  2. Preheat and Prepare Baking Sheets: Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to be ready for baking.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment to beat 1 cup of softened unsalted butter with 1 cup brown sugar and 1/2 cup granulated sugar on low to medium speed for about 2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  4. Add Eggs: Add 1 whole large egg followed by 1 large egg yolk into the creamed butter and sugar mixture. Mix again until fully incorporated.
  5. Add Flavorings: Mix in the coffee flavor components – 2 to 3 teaspoons of dry ground coffee granules, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 teaspoons brewed black coffee – on low speed for about 30 seconds to combine evenly.
  6. Add Dry Ingredients: Turn off the mixer and add the 2.5 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Start mixing on low speed and increase to medium as the dry ingredients begin to incorporate with the wet mixture until a dough forms.
  7. Stir in Chocolate Chunks: Stop the mixer and fold in 1 1/2 cups of chocolate chunks or chips by hand, ensuring the chunks remain intact.
  8. Chill Dough: Refrigerate the dough for 20 minutes to firm it up, making it easier to scoop and maintaining the cookie shape during baking.
  9. Scoop Cookies: Using a 3-tablespoon cookie scoop or a large spoon, portion out six evenly sized balls of dough on each prepared baking sheet.
  10. Bake Cookies: Place the baking sheet on the lower rack of the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 17 minutes. The cookies are done when the edges turn golden brown but the centers remain soft.
  11. Cool and Serve: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your chewy coffee-infused chocolate chip cookies!

Notes

  • For stronger coffee flavor, use espresso powder instead of regular instant coffee granules.
  • If you prefer a less pronounced coffee taste, reduce the ground coffee to 1 teaspoon.
  • You can substitute semi-sweet chocolate chips if chocolate chunks are unavailable.
  • Chilling the dough is important to prevent excessive spreading during baking and to enhance chewiness.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days to maintain freshness.
