Ingredients:
For the cookies:
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup unsalted butter softened
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chocolate chips or your preferred cookie add-ins
For the coffee:
- 2 tablespoons ground coffee beans
- 2 cups boiling water
- Optional: milk, sugar, or flavored syrups for customization
Instructions:
Prepare the Cookies:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips or your preferred cookie add-ins.
- Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow it to firm up.
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Shape and Bake the Cookies:
- Once the dough has chilled, scoop rounded tablespoons of dough and roll them into balls.
- Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them to allow for spreading.
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Prepare the Coffee:
- While the cookies are cooling, prepare your coffee. In a French press or coffee maker, add the ground coffee beans.
- Pour boiling water over the coffee grounds and let it steep for about 4-5 minutes.
- Press the plunger of the French press or strain the coffee to separate the grounds from the liquid.
Serve and Enjoy:
- Pour a cup of freshly brewed coffee into your favorite mug.
- Grab a couple of homemade cookies and dip them into your coffee for a delightful combination of flavors and textures.
- Customize your coffee with milk, sugar, or flavored syrups according to your preference.
Tips:
- Feel free to experiment with different cookie add-ins such as nuts, dried fruits, or even crushed candy bars to create your own unique cookie flavors.
- If you prefer a stronger coffee flavor, you can adjust the amount of ground coffee beans or steeping time to your liking.
Now you have the ultimate cookie coffee recipe to satisfy your cravings for both coffee and sweets. Indulge in this delicious pairing and let the flavors of homemade cookies and aromatic coffee transport you to a cozy café experience.
