Espresso Coffee Cookies



Baked these Espresso Coffee Cookies since last month, I modified the recipe from basic butter cookies by adding espresso coffee powder to make them more special. The important thing when you want to make butter cookies that is the butter quality. From my experience, it a big difference if using good butter as the ingredient.

Though it's just a plain cookies without adding nuts or dried fruits but you can enjoy eating them with non stop!

Espresso Coffee Cookies

All purpose flour 250 g.
Baking powder 3/4 tsp.
Baking soda 1/2 tsp.
Salted butter 125 g.
Icing sugar 130 g. *
Egg (medium) 1
Espresso powder 1 1/2 tsp. (mix in hot milk 2 tsp. and let it cool to room temperature)

1. Sift flour with baking power and baking soda then set aside.
2. In the mixing bowl, cream the butter till soft and add in icing sugar. Beat the butter and icing to light and fluffy about 6 mins.
2. Add in egg mix well then add coffee mixer.
3. Slowly add flour mix with low speed till incorporated (only few mins).
4. Put the cookie batter in the piping bag with a piping tip (I used Wilton's tip 1M) and pipe the cookie batter to the greased baking tray. Bake in preheat oven 180C for 10-12 mins.

Remarks: From the above recipe, the amount of icing sugar can be adjusted to suit your liking.
