  • 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

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cup gluten free all purpose baking flour (can sub regular)
  • 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 bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer.
  2. Cream together: Beat the butter and sugars together for 1 minute until light and fluffy.
  3. Add egg and vanilla: Incorporate the egg and vanilla extract; beat until well combined and smooth.
  4. Add dry ingredients: Spoon and level the gluten-free flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and instant coffee powder into the mixture, excluding the chocolate chips.
  5. Mix dry and wet: Mix the dough until just combined, then gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  6. Chill dough: Place the dough in the refrigerator and chill for 20-30 minutes to firm up for easier handling and better texture.
  7. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  8. Scoop dough: Using a 2 tablespoon scoop, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there is enough space between each cookie for spreading.
  9. Add more chocolate chips: Press a few extra chocolate chips on top of each cookie to enhance chocolate flavor and appearance.
  10. Bake cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown; remember they continue to firm as they cool.
  11. Cool and serve: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 10-15 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your coffee-infused chocolate chip cookies!

Notes

  • For regular all-purpose flour, substitute 1:1 for the gluten-free flour.
  • Ensure butter is at room temperature for easier creaming and better cookie texture.
  • Pressing extra chocolate chips on top before baking enhances appearance and chocolate burst.
  • Chilling the dough improves cookie shape and texture by preventing excessive spreading during baking.
  • Cookies firm up as they cool, so avoid overbaking to keep them soft and chewy.
