Coffee Cup Cookies

Killer Coffee Cup Cookies!

These are adult cookies - not too sweet and with a mellow coffee flavor. The chocolate chip
cookie forms a crispy cup for a moist coffee filling.

Want to try it?


Ingredients:

  • 1.5 cups all purpose flour
  • .5 teaspoon baking soda
  • .25 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup softened unsalted butter
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1.5 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 shot of strong 'ristretto' espresso
  • 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chunks

Instructions:

pre-heat 350f oven
butter cookie pan

1) sift flour, salt and baking soda.

2) mix sugar and butter to a fluffy paste, add egg & vanilla, mix well.

3) combine with flour mix.

4) Separate out about 1/5 of the dough and pour a fresh ristretto espresso shot into the smaller

portion (mix well - make sure it does not get too liquidy). In the larger bowl - add broken up

semi-sweet dark chocolate and mix.

5) form cups with the chocolate chip cookie dough and fill with the coffee filling.

Leave room around the cookies as they do tend to expand.

6) bake till done - about 10 to 15 minutes. 'Cup' should be crisp but not hard, filling will be moist.

Sprinkle fine coffee grounds and unsweetened coco powder over top.

ENJOY!
