Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup unsalted butter (softened)
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar (packed)
• 1 unit large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 0.75 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, instant coffee granules, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture, beating until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients. Mix on low speed until just combined, taking care not to overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips and chopped nuts using a spatula or wooden spoon.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are set around the edges but still soft in the center.

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve with a glass of milk or a hot cup of coffee for the ultimate mocha experience!
