instructions
Directions:
For the Chewy Brownie Cookies:
-
In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add sugar and whisk 1-2 minutes to dissolve sugar. Add chocolate chips, vanilla extract, and coffee extract and whisk until smooth. Remove from heat, and set aside to allow to cool slightly.
-
In a large bowl, mix flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder.
-
Once the chocolate mixture has cooled slightly, add eggs one at a time, whisking well in between each addition.
-
Pour the chocolate mixture into the flour mixture and stir until combined. Cover and chill for at least one hour.
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out a rounded tablespoon of batter for each cookie, roll lightly into a round ball and press slightly to form a 4-inch circle (about 1/2 inch thick) and bake for 11-13 minutes. Remove the cookies from the oven and transfer them to a cooling rack. Store in an airtight container.

Wrap remaining sandwiches in wax paper and seal in an airtight container
-
Return to freezer to enjoy at any time.
