Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour 240g
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 34g
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt 3g
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder 2g
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened (1 stick)
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar 300g
  • 1 teaspoon espresso powder 2g
  • 1 large egg at room temperature (~50g)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 6g

Instructions

  1. Line two sheet pans with parchment paper or nonstick baking mats. Set aside.
  2. Measure the flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder into a large bowl. Whisk together until combined, then set aside.
  3. In another bowl, cream together the sugar, butter and espresso powder using a hand mixer or a stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add the egg and vanilla to the mixture, beating until fluffy and fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
  5. Pour the flour mixture into the butter mixture, mixing until combined.
  6. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and chill for 30-45 minutes.
  7. Once the cookies have cooled, preheat the oven to 350°F.
  8. Transfer the chilled cookie dough onto a long sheet of wax paper (or parchment paper or a clean smooth surface that has been lightly floured.) Press another sheet of wax paper on top of it.
  9. Roll the cookie dough out until ¼" thick. Cut out with a cookie cutter and transfer gently onto the prepared baking sheet.
  10. Bake for 7-8 minutes, or until set and firm. (Keep an eye on them. Overbaking them will make them crispy, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but if you want a fluffier cookie, the overbaked ones will not be.)
  11. Set the cookies on a wire rack to cool, then enjoy.

  • How to freeze: Roll them out and cut out shapes, then freeze them on a tray and bake them from frozen. The texture will be a little different because of the freeze, but they’ll still be tasty.
