Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, dark brown sugar, and 1/2 cup of the white sugar until light and fluffy. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Beat in the egg, molasses, 2 tablespoons of instant espresso powder, vanilla extract, ground ginger, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice until thoroughly combined. (2-3 minutes)

03

Step

Gradually add 1 cup of all-purpose flour and the baking soda, mixing until just combined. Stir in the remaining 1 cup of flour until the dough comes together. (3-5 minutes)

04

Step

Cover the dough tightly and refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours, or up to 48 hours, to allow the flavors to meld and the dough to firm up. (2+ hours)

05

Step

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper for easy release.

06

Step

In a small, shallow bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/4 cup of white sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of instant espresso powder until well combined.

07

Step

Remove the chilled cookie dough from the refrigerator. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, portion out 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough.

08

Step

Roll each portion of dough into a smooth ball, then roll the ball in the espresso sugar mixture, ensuring it is thoroughly coated.

09

Step

Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading during baking.

10

Step

Bake one baking sheet at a time in the preheated oven until the cookies are crackled on top and the edges appear set, approximately 12 to 15 minutes.

11

Step

Allow the baked cookies to cool on the baking sheet for at least 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

For a richer flavor, use freshly ground spices.
Chilling the dough is crucial for preventing the cookies from spreading too thin during baking.
Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
