Tips For Best Coffee Cookies
Storing and freezing
After the coffee cookies have completely cooled, you can keep them for up to 3–4 days in an airtight container. They will start to lose their chew after 3–4 days. You can freeze them if necessary to make them last a bit longer!
Arrange the cookies in an airtight container in a single layer to freeze them. To prevent the cookies from sticking together, place a piece of parchment paper between each layer. To prevent freezer burn, add a piece of parchment paper at the end.
The cookies can be frozen for up to two months. Before serving, allow them to thaw uncovered at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes. Would you want a coffee flavor without caffeine? Simple, make decaf!
Instructions
Don’t be afraid to add extra fancy ingredients to these cookies! Adding chocolate chips, hazelnuts, coconut, or toffee would all taste great. You want to stay moderate, though, because the texture of the cookies will suffer. I would use approximately 1 cup of more significant additions, such as chocolate chips or nuts.
Talking About Taste And Texture

The height of these cookies is just right. They are both skinny and crispy and overly thick and doughy. They have soft middle and crispy edges.
Nutritional Facts Of Coffee Cookies

Keep a watch out for my recipe for tiramisu cookies coming next week! You can use these cookies as a base for mascarpone cream icing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are coffee cookies high in caffeine?
The total amount of espresso used in this recipe—one and a half tablespoons, or less than one shot—makes about 18 cookies. One or two cookies won’t give you much caffeine unless you consume the full recipe at once. The flavor of the cookies won’t change if you use decaf espresso if you’re extremely sensitive to caffeine.
Can I add the dry espresso powder directly into the dough?
No. I tested the recipe in this manner as I was creating it, but the espresso flavor was too faint. The coffee flavor is much stronger when the hot water is added to the powder first.
Can I use brewed or instant coffee instead of espresso?
Using instant or brewed coffee would give the cookies a much softer coffee flavor that will be tougher to discern since espresso is much more concentrated than coffee. I recommend sticking with espresso, but if you must use regular coffee, use no more than 1.5 Tablespoons of liquid.
Why didn’t my cookies spread?
If your cookies didn’t spread, your flour was probably over-measured. Tips on how to measure flour correctly are provided below.
Can I freeze these cookies?
Yes! I would appreciate a review if you bake these coffee cookies!
