3 Tablespoons sugar

1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 and 1/2 teaspoons instant espresso powder
1 and 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Cream butter and sugars until fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla for 30 seconds. Sift dry ingredients together and and beat into butter mixture. Stir in espresso powder and chocolate chips.
Drop cookies by heaping Tablespoons onto lightly greased cookie sheets, 3 inches apart. Gently press down with the back of a lightly buttered spoon, and spread into a 2 inch circle. Bake 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown on edges.
Enjoy!

Hi Beverley! 🙂 It’s a date. xoxo (ps… hope you’re having a beautiful time in Scotland! how fun!)
Sounds good and will make these; I’ve seen the story for years. What’s funny is that if you click the link in your post, the recipe given isn’t this one at all! 🙂
LOL! I know! It’s probably because the recipe has been copied and recopied 10 billion times 😉
Just made these, so yummy! Thanks for the recipe!
so pleased you like them, Jaime! 🙂
How do you buy the espresso powder? Is it a big jar? Do grocery stores sell it? I am not a coffee drinker, so I am clueless. Thanks!
Hi Barb,
I buy mine through Sur la Table… I really like the King Arthur Brand for cooking 🙂 I’ve bought other brands at certain grocery stores too, but it’s not always available. Amazon would be another source if you can’t find it at your local market. Here’s a link to the King Arthur brand… hope this helps!

Hi I am going to make theses can I use regular ground coffee instead of espresso? Thank you for your reply.
Hi Nancy!
As long as the coffee you are using is instant, I don’t think there would be a noticeable difference. Hope that helps! Happy baking!
