    List of Ingredients








    MAKES EIGHTEEN 3-INCH COOKIES



    2 cups all-purpose flour

    1/2 cup cocoa powder

    1/2 teaspoon salt

    1/2 teaspoon baking soda

    2 tablespoons instant espresso powder

    1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

    3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened

    1 cup packed light-brown sugar

    1/2 cup granulated sugar

    1 large egg, plus 1 large egg yolk

    7 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped


    Recipe






    1. Preheat oven to 325°. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.

    2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda; set aside. In a small bowl, stir together espresso powder, vanilla, and a tablespoon of water; set aside.

    3. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugars together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add egg and yolk; mix until incorporated. Add espresso mixture; mix well, scraping down the sides of a bowl with a spatula. At low speed, add flour mixture in small batches, mixing until just combined. Remove bowl from mixer, and stir in chocolate chunks.

    4. Using a 2-ounce ice-cream scoop, scoop heaping balls of dough and place 3 inches apart on prepared baking sheets. Bake until cookies are set, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven; let cool completely before removing cookies.
