Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 48 servings

  • 3 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 teaspoon ground cardamom

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 1 ½ cups brown sugar, firmly packed

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature

  • 2 tablespoons instant espresso powder

  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

  • 1 (12 ounce) bag semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

  2. Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, cardamom, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl.

  3. Cream brown sugar, butter, and white sugar together in a bowl until fluffy. Beat in eggs 1 at a time until thoroughly combined. Mix in instant espresso powder and vanilla extract.

  4. Mix flour mixture into the butter mixture until just combined; do not overmix. Fold in chocolate chips.

  5. Drop dough by the tablespoon onto the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven until edges of cookies are set, 10 to 15 minutes. Cool cookies on the pans 2 to 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips

These cookies spread a lot while baking. If they spread too much, however, you can refrigerate the dough for 30 to 60 minutes before baking.
