How to Make Espresso And Chocolate Chip Cookies

  1. Melt: In a medium saucepan, combine 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, and 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth and melted.
  2. Cool: Remove from heat and let cool for 10-15 minutes.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup packed brown sugar, 2 large eggs, and 2 tablespoons instant espresso powder.
  4. Mix: Beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes, until light and fluffy.
  5. Add Chocolate: Gradually add the cooled melted chocolate mixture to the wet ingredients, beating until fully combined.
  6. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  7. Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. Add Chocolate Chips: Stir in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and ½ cup dark chocolate chips.
  9. Rest the Dough: Cover the dough with wax paper and let it rest at room temperature for 20 minutes to thicken.
  10. Preheat Oven & Prepare Baking Sheets: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  11. Bake: Scoop 3 ounces of dough per cookie, leaving 2 inches between each cookie. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are no longer moist. Do not bake in a cold oven.
  12. Cool: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 1 minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
