Indulge in the rich flavours of rich chocolate and bold espresso with every bite of these decadent Chocolate Chip Espresso Cookies. A perfect blend of sweetness and boldness in every delicious bite.

Ingredients: 

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Balzac’s Espresso Blend
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• ½ cup packed brown sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 large egg yolk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

1. In a stainless-steel pan, melt the butter over medium heat until the butter solids at the bottom turn amber-brown. Scrape all the butter into your mixing bowl.
2. Stir in espresso grounds and set the bowl aside to cool to room temperature.
3. Whisk in granulated sugar and brown sugar for one minute until combined.
4. Whisk in the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
5. Fold in flour, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips until combined.
6. Scoop the dough onto a parchment-lined baking tray. Chill the tray in the freezer for at least 3-4 hours (or overnight for the best flavour and texture).
7. Preheat the oven to 350°F when ready to bake.
8. Bake the frozen cookies spaced at least two inches apart for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden but the middle is still pale and puffy.
9. Let the tray cool on a wire cooling rack before enjoying the delicious cookies!
