Coffee Cookies
These coffee cookies have cinnamon and coffee flavors. They're light, fluffy and sweet, as well as being very simple to make, even if you don't bake much.
Servings: 18 cookies
Equipment
- Cookie Scoop Medium
Ingredients
- 1½ Cups all purpose flour
- ½ Teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ Teaspoon salt
- ¼ Teaspoon ground cinnamon optional
- ½ Cup butter at room temperature
- ½ Cup white granulated sugar
- ¼ Cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 egg
- ¼ Cup strong coffee cooled
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, cream the butter, sugar, and brown sugar.
- Add the egg and mix until integrated.
- Add half of the dry mixture. Mix until the flour is almost incorporated.
- Add the coffee, and mix well.
- Add the remaining of the flour mixture. Mix well.
- Refrigerate the dough for 15 to 20 minutes (optional but recommended).
- Scoop the dough into balls, using a medium-sized cookie scoop.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 9 to 11 minutes. The edges will be set and golden and the middle will be soft.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the cookie sheet for 2 to 3 minutes then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely before serving.
Notes
Use a hand mixer: Using a hand mixer to mix the butter and sugar gets more air into the mixture, which results in a lighter and fluffier cookie. You can also use a Danish dough whisk if you have one.
Don't overmix: Mix only until the flour is incorporated. Further mixing beyond that point might make the cookies dense.
No overcrowding: Don't overcrowd the cookie sheet. You should have 6 to 8 cookies per batch so they bake evenly.
