Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 10 mins
Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: English
Serves: 24 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup toffee bits
- 1/4 cup instant coffee granules
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, approximately 3-4 minutes.
- Add vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, instant coffee granules, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Fold in the toffee bits using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Gently flatten each cookie dough ball with the back of a spoon or your fingers to create a slightly uniform shape.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers appear set.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Use Fresh Ingredients: For the best flavor, ensure your butter is softened and your coffee granules are fresh. This will enhance the overall taste of your cookies.
- Don’t Overmix: When combining the dry ingredients with the butter mixture, mix just until combined. Overmixing can lead to tough cookies.
- Customize Your Toffee: Feel free to experiment with different types of toffee bits or even add chocolate chips for an extra layer of flavor.
- Keep an Eye on Baking Time: Ovens can vary, so start checking your cookies at the 10-minute mark. They should be lightly golden around the edges but still soft in the center.
- Cool Properly: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. This helps them set and maintain their chewy texture.
- Storage: Store your cookies in an airtight container to keep them fresh for up to 5 days. If you want to keep them longer, consider freezing them for a delightful treat anytime!
