How to Make Mocha Walnut Christmas Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 1/2 cup (60g) of chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
  3. In a small cup, dissolve 1 teaspoon of instant coffee granules in 1 tablespoon of boiling water. Set aside.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  5. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup (100g) packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  6. Beat in 1 large egg and the cooled melted chocolate chips. Mix well.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in 1/2 cup (60g) chocolate chips and 1/2 cup (60g) chopped walnuts.
  8. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
