    Chocolate Dipped Espresso Cookies


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup butter (2 sticks)
    2/3 cup sugar
    1 egg yolk
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/8 cup coarsely crushed espresso beans

    Chocolate Coating:
    8 ounces semisweet chocolate
    2 ounces unsweetened chocolate

    Recipe



    In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar until fluffy. Mix in the egg yolk and vanilla, then flour and salt. Mix until well-combined. Gently stir in the crushed espresso beans.

    Place the dough on waxed paper and shape into rolls, approximately 1 1/2-inches in diameter. Chill about 1 hour, or until firm.

    Slice the dough into 1/4-inch thick slices. Place the slices on a parchment covered baking sheet and bake in a 350 oven for about 9 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned. Remove the parchment paper with the cookies on it from the baking sheet and cool completely.
    Chocolate Coating: Melt chocolates together in the top of a double boiler over about 1-inch of simmering water. Dip 1/2 of each cookie into chocolate, let cool. Makes 6 to 7 dozen.
