Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup brewed coffee, cooled
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for rolling)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract and cooled brewed coffee, mixing until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to make it easier to handle.
- Once chilled, scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball in powdered sugar until fully coated.
- Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are crinkled. Let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, try adding 1/2 cup of chocolate chips to the dough before chilling.
- You can also substitute the brewed coffee with espresso for a stronger coffee flavor.
