Espresso and chocolate go so beautifully together. Think of a white chocolate mocha or dipping chocolate biscotti into a coffee drink. These Espresso White Chocolate Chip Cookies prove why a dash of instant espresso takes dessert up to the next level.
When these cookies came out of the oven, Alexander and I had to stop ourselves from eating the whole first batch up. Dunk these in a big, cold glass of milk or wash them down with a cappuccino.
The batch makes about 36 cookies, so you’ll have plenty for the whole family and maybe even some lucky friends! Recipe slightly adapted from Savory Sweet Life.
