Ingredients
- 200 g all-purpose flour
- 120 g unsalted butter
- 50 g Dutch-processed cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 150 g packed light brown sugar
- 50 g superfine granulated sugar
- 2 large egg yolks
- 1 whole large egg
- 70 g milk chocolate chips
- 70 g white chocolate chips
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp espresso powder
Instructions
- Here’s a step-by-step guide to baking these delectable cookies:
Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients and Equipment
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper. This step is crucial for consistent baking and easy cleanup.
Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients
- In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, Dutch-processed cocoa powder, sea salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.
Step 3: Cream the Butter and Sugars
- In another bowl, beat the unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. This takes about 3-4 minutes with an electric mixer.
- Step 4: Add Eggs and Extracts
- Add the egg yolks and whole egg one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract and espresso powder.
Step 5: Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix, as it can result in a tough cookie.
Step 6: Fold in the Chocolate Chips
- Gently fold in the milk chocolate chips and white chocolate chips. This ensures even distribution throughout the dough.
Step 7: Portion and Bake
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Space them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set, and the centers look slightly underbaked.
Step 8: Cool Before Serving
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This allows them to set up perfectly.
Notes
Enhance your baking experience with these expert tips:
– Chill the Dough: Refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. It helps in achieving a thicker, chewier cookie.
– Measure Precisely: For best results, use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients. Baking is a science, and accuracy matters.
– Soft Butter: Ensure your butter is at room temperature. It creams better with the sugars, creating the perfect texture.
– Avoid Overbaking: Keep an eye on the cookies. Overbaking can lead to a hard texture. Slightly underbaked centers result in chewy cookies.
– Rotate the Pans: Halfway through baking, rotate your pans. This ensures even baking for all cookies.
