INGREDIENTS
| 1/3 | cup all-purpose flour |
| 1/8 | teaspoon salt |
| 3/4 | cup sugar |
| 1/2 | cup (1 stick) plus 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened |
| 2 | eggs |
| 1‑1/2 | teaspoons vanilla |
| 2 | tablespoons instant espresso powder, dissolved in 2 tablespoons hot water |
| 3 | (3-1/2-ounce) bars bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped |
| 1/4 | cup white chocolate chips |
PREPARATION:
- Sift together flour and salt; set aside. Beat sugar and 1/2 cup butter until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla; beat until smooth. Stir in espresso mixture. (There will be some extra grounds that will not dissolve. Do not stir in.)
- Add flour mixture to butter mixture; beat just until blended. Fold in chocolate. Refrigerate dough at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper; grease paper. Drop by level teaspoonfuls about 1 inch apart, 20 to a pan. (Dough will still be sticky and may require some molding with fingers.) Bake 7 to 8 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Let cookies cool on cookie sheets 1 minute. Transfer to wire rack; cool completely.
- Combine white chocolate chips and remaining 1 tablespoon butter in microwavable bowl. Microwave on HIGH 50 seconds; stir well. If necessary, microwave at additional 10-second intervals until chocolate is completely melted when stirred. Drizzle from tip of spoon onto cooled cookies.
Note
Cookies are very crisp when first baked. They become softer after a few hours. Store in tightly covered container.
