Ingredients
Scale
Cookies:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
- 1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup mascarpone cheese
Topping:
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons mascarpone cheese
- cocoa powder for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream butter and sugars: In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
- Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and espresso powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Add mix-ins: Fold in the mini chocolate chips and mascarpone cheese until evenly distributed.
- Bake: Scoop dough onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10–12 minutes or until edges are set and centers are soft. Cool on the pan before transferring to a wire rack.
- Prepare topping: Whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until soft peaks form, then fold in the mascarpone cheese. Top each cookie with a dollop of mascarpone cream and dust with cocoa powder. Serve or refrigerate briefly to set.
Notes
- For a stronger coffee flavor, increase espresso powder to 1 1/2 tablespoons.
- These cookies taste even better after chilling for 30 minutes.
