How to Make Coffee Shortbread Cookies
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ¼ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Stir in 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules.
- Gradually beat in 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour and ½ teaspoon salt until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll it to ¼ inch thickness.
- Use 2-3 inch cookie cutters to cut out shapes. Reroll scraps as needed.
- Place cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
- Remove from oven and let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
- Once cooled, drizzle with your favorite melted chocolate chips (about 2 oz).
