  • Total Time: 53 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cup gluten free all purpose baking flour (can substitute with regular flour)
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee powder

Add-ins

  • 2/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Combine butter and sugars: Add the softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar to a mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer.
  2. Cream together: Beat the butter and sugars together for about 1 minute until light and fluffy.
  3. Add egg and vanilla: Incorporate the egg and vanilla extract into the creamed mixture, beating until well combined.
  4. Add dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and instant coffee powder. Spoon and level the flour accurately before adding to the wet ingredients. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture.
  5. Mix dough and fold chocolate chips: Mix until the ingredients are just combined, then gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  6. Chill dough: Cover the dough and place it in the refrigerator to chill for 20 to 30 minutes. Chilling helps the flavors meld and dough firm up for easier scooping.
  7. Preheat oven: While the dough chills, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  8. Scoop dough: Using a 2-tablespoon scoop, portion out the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring enough space between each cookie for spreading.
  9. Add more chocolate chips: Press a few extra chocolate chips onto the top of each cookie for an attractive finish and added chocolate goodness.
  10. Bake cookies: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown. The centers may look slightly soft but will firm up as they cool.
  11. Cool and serve: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 10 to 15 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to finish cooling. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can substitute regular all-purpose flour instead of gluten-free flour if desired.
  • For a stronger coffee flavor, increase the instant coffee powder by 1 tablespoon.
  • Use room temperature butter for easier creaming and better texture.
  • Chilling the dough is important to prevent spreading and to develop flavors.
  • Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze leftover dough balls for up to 3 months; bake from frozen, adding a couple of minutes to baking time.
