Time 2h30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (315 grams)
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 and 1/2 teaspoons espresso powder
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature (227 grams)
1 cup dark brown sugar, packed (213 grams)
1/2 cup granulated sugar (99 grams)
1 and 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 Tablespoons Baileys Irish Cream Liqueur
2 large eggs, at room temperature
12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (340 grams)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl combine flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, and espresso powder; whisk well to combine then set aside.
  • In a separate large bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine butter and both sugars and beat on medium-speed until light and fluffy, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed; about 2 minutes.
  • Add in the vanilla extract and baileys Irish cream, and beat until combined.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time, beating for 15 seconds after each addition. Turn mixer off. Using a wooden spoon or sturdy rubber spatula, gently fold in the flour mixture, stirring only until the flour begins to disappear. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Cover the bowl and chill the dough for at least 2 hours (and up to 3 days) before baking. Or bake right away for regular cookies (they'll be thinner but still delicious!!!).
