COFFEE DROP COOKIES

COFFEE DROP COOKIES image

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

1 1/4 cups light brown sugar, packed
3/4 cup shortening -- butter flavored
2 tablespoons brewed coffee -- cold
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon French roast coffee beans finely ground or espresso coffee beans
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips
1/2 cup walnuts -- coarsely chopped
36 chocolate kisses -- unwrapped

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees; place sheets of foil on countertop for cooling cookies. Place the brown sugar, shortening, coffee and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Beat on medium speed of an electric mixer until blended. Add the egg; beat well. Combine the flour, ground coffee, salt and baking soda. Add to the shortening mixture; beat on low speed just until blended. Stir in the chocolate chips and walnuts. Drop the dough by rounded measuring tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake one baking sheet at a time for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly browned and just set. Do no overbake. Place one chocolate kiss candy in the center of each cookie. Cool for 2 minutes on the baking sheet. Remove the cookies to the foil to cool completely.

Tips:

Chill the dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much.
Use a scoop: Using a cookie scoop to portion the dough ensures that all of the cookies are the same size and shape, which helps them bake evenly.
Don't overbake: Coffee drop cookies are best when they are slightly underbaked. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
Let the cookies cool completely: Letting the cookies cool completely before storing them helps them to set and prevents them from becoming too soft.

Conclusion:

Coffee drop cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy these classic cookies right at home. So next time you're looking for a sweet snack, give coffee drop cookies a try.
