Cafe Latte Cookies

Posted by Margalit

As I've mentioned many times, I'm not a sweet cookie eater. I like my cookies with strong taste, but with a bit more sophisticated than the average chocolate chip offering. This cookie is everything I like, coffee flavored, nice and crispy, and easy to make.

Cafe Latte Cookies

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup butter, room temperature
1 large egg
1 tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
2 tbsp instant coffee powder
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder

Preheat oven to 400 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugars. Beat in egg, milk and vanilla.
In a small bowl, whisk together flour, coffee powder, cinnamon, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Stir the flour mixture into butter mixture.
Drop dough by rounded spoonfuls, forming 1-inch in diameter mounds, on the baking sheet.
Bake until cookie are golden at the edges, about 8-11 minutes.
Cool on baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
