Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

  • 110 gram butter
  • 150 gram brown sugar
  • 75 gram caster sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 200 gram all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon cacao powder (preferably Dutch processed cacao and unsweetened)
  • 2 teaspoons instant espresso coffee
  • 200 gram chocolate chips

Instructions

1

Beat the butter and sugars in a stand mixer until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes)

2

Add vanilla extract and egg

3

Sift flour, baking soda, coffee, cacao powder and salt in a separate bowl

4

Add this to the butter mixture, and on a low speed, mix these ingredients together until a cookie dough forms.

5

Fold in the chocolate chips

6

Let the cookie dough harden/rest in the fridge for about an hour (or longer).

7

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius

8

I use a scale to weigh the cookie dough per cookie; 45-50 gram per cookie.

9

Roll them into little balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. About 6 per baking sheet.

10

Bake the cookies for 11 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven.

11

Leave the cookies to cool a bit on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wired rack to cook completely... if you can wait that long.

Notes

The cacao powder and instant espresso coffee are optional. I added them to give the cookies a more intense chocolate flavour. This recipe makes about 16 cookies (50 gram cookie dough per cookie)
