triple chocolate espresso cookies.

November 14, 2011 by Hillary 10 Comments

This weekend I was stuck at home with yet another gosh dang cold. The tea kettle was whistling every other hour to fill up my mug of Gypsy Cold Care tea, and I accomplished little to nothing on my weekend to-do list.

Sunday, however, I had enough steam to bake four batches of Triple Chocolate Espresso Cookies (after triple-washing my hands, of course).

Cocoa Powder. Chocolate Chips. Espresso Powder. Dark Chocolate Espresso Beans.

The recipe is courtesy of 101 Cookbooks – as was last Sunday’s Sparkling Ginger Chip Cookie recipe – and was another smashing buzzing hit.

They’re great gooey out of the oven, even better snuggled up on the couch with a cold glass of milk, and I imagine they’d be excellent crumbled over ice cream.

Recipe Notes:
  1. I chopped the espresso beans and recommend you do the same unless you want to chip a tooth.
  2. I also suggest using parchment paper on your baking sheets – no spatula needed.
  3. From my experience, cookies with cocoa powder dry out fast; store them in the freezer. There’s nothing wrong with a cold, crunchy, chocolate cookie.

I was feeling a bit loopy last night. I couldn’t tell if it was the cold meds or the cookies.

I presume the later.

I’ll be buzzin’ through my week for sure… see ya!

    I’ve never had cookies with actual espresso beans (not just powder). They sound (and look) incredible. Love all of Heidi’s recipes :) Do you have her books?

    OMG YES I AM AN ESPRESSO ENTHUSIAST!! At my favorite restaurant in the WHOLE WORLD instead of giving you mints or whatever at the end they bring you chocolate-covered espresso beans. This recipe is happening. I am addicted to anything and everything coffee-tastic, it’s a problem.

    These look to die for. I will most definitely be testing my baking skills out on these once I am home for fall break!

Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴 I was expect Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴

I was expecting all things beer, brats and pretzels in Leavenworth (not really my jam) 🍺🥨🧀, and while there’s plenty of it, I was delighted to find plenty of delicious eats for my “foodie” taste. 

We went to all of these 3 places more than once during our quick stay - highly recommend! 

☕️ @argonautespressobar: Located at one end of Front Street, this adorable coffee bar has delicious espresso drinks, breakfast items, and the best view! 

🥐 @tumwaterbakery: Incredible pastries, avocado toast on artisanal bread that’s a feast for your eyes... and I’m eager to go back and try their wood-fired pizza! 

🍜 @yodelinbroth: Literally some of the best food I’ve had (ever!), and that’s saying a lot. I had the Yodelin soup with housemade wild PNW halibut bone coconut curry broth, udon noodles, heaps of veggies and wild salmon - it was nourishing to my core as we ate it outside in 30 degree weather. I even bought some of the broth to recreate this meal at home, yum!

winter wonderland getaway ✔️ We had snow much winter wonderland getaway ✔️

We had snow much fun exploring the picturesque Bavarian town of Leavenworth, WA for a much-needed mid-week getaway to the mountains. 🏔

We stayed in a cozy little cabin @logecamps right on the Wenatchee River (one day I’ll be back to stay at the stunning @phleavenworth), played in Enchantment Park, took a drive to Lake Wenatchee, and discovered some of the best food downtown (I’m saving my food recs for another post).

Nestled between the snow-capped Cascade Mountains with the river running through town, it’s quite magical in the middle of winter. ❄️ I’m already dreaming of heading back for some summer adventures!
I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in Florida for two years.
