Fresh from the oven – gooey mocha chunk cookies! My sister, Laurie, sent me this recipe last week. She had just made them and said that they were amazing. These remind me of the Brownie Drops we used to make as kids, but these are enhanced with espresso powder and chocolate chips.
Laurie loves the espresso and chocolate combination, and I agree. The mocha flavor intensifies the chocolate – so good! These are very easy and quick to make- they only take about 20 minutes from start to finish!
These called for 1 cup of semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate chips and 1 cup of chocolate chunks. Laurie had used Heath Toffee Bits in hers, so I did the same. I used 1 cup of chocolate chips, along with 1/2 cup of the Heath Toffee Bits and 1/2 cup of chocolate espresso chips.
Yum! These make small rounded chunky cookies – perfect for snacking! If you like a flatter cookie, just gently press the dough down before baking with your fingers. Fast – and Easy – and Chocolate – with a hint of Espresso – it doesn’t get much better than that! Enjoy!!!
