Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Coffee Syrup: In a small saucepan, combine the brewed espresso and 1/4 cup of sugar. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until the mixture reduces to a thick, glossy syrup (approximately 12-15 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool completely (about 30 minutes).

02

Step

Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

03

Step

Cream Butter and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and 3/4 cup of sugar until light and fluffy. This usually takes about 3-5 minutes with an electric mixer.

04

Step

Add Wet Ingredients: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined. Then, mix in the baking powder and baking soda.

05

Step

Incorporate Coffee Syrup: Gradually mix in the cooled espresso syrup until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

06

Step

Add Dry Ingredients: Slowly add the flour, mixing until just blended. Be careful not to overmix.

07

Step

Fold in Cacao Nibs: Gently fold in the cacao nibs until they are evenly dispersed throughout the dough.

08

Step

Scoop and Bake: Scoop 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie. You should be able to fit about 12 cookies per sheet.

09

Step

Bake: Bake one baking sheet at a time in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Repeat with the second baking sheet.

10

Step

Cool: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

For a richer coffee flavor, use a dark roast espresso.
If you don't have cacao nibs, you can substitute with chopped dark chocolate.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
