Ingredients
For the cookies:
- 1 cup butter softened
- 1 1/2 cups white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup cocoa powder
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon espresso powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup toffee chips optional
For the espresso buttercream:
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 1/2 teaspoons espresso powder
Instructions
To make the cookies:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla.
- In a small bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, espresso powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients until well combined.
- Stir in the toffee chips.
- Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls onto a parchment lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 9 minutes or until just set. Cool for a few minutes on the cookie sheet and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
To make the frosting:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together the butter and powdered sugar until well combined. In a small cup, stir together the vanilla and espresso powder.
- Add the espresso mixture to the butter mixture and beat until combined.
- When the cookies are completely cool, spread half of the cookies with the frosting and top with the remaining halves.
- Store any unused frosting in the refrigerator (or eat it with a spoon like me).
