Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup toffee bits
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee granules

Instructions

  1. Brown the Butter: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the butter turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar and granulated sugar. Pour in the browned butter and mix until well combined. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and instant coffee granules.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Fold in Add-ins: Gently fold in the toffee bits and chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  6. Chill the Dough: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour. This will help the cookies hold their shape while baking.
  7. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  8. Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly underbaked.
  10. Cool: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. Enjoy: Once cooled, enjoy your delicious Brown Butter Coffee Toffee Cookies with a cup of coffee or your favorite beverage!

Notes

  • You can substitute the chocolate chips with nuts or different types of chocolate for variations.
  • For a stronger coffee flavor, use espresso powder instead of instant coffee granules.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
