A few years ago I would have told you sugar cookies were my least favorite cookie- and now I have three delicious recipes that I love! First was my easy cut out sugar cookies, then my soft sugar cookies and now these delicious chocolate sugar cookies!
How to make chocolate sugar cookies:
- Combine dry ingredients in one bowl
- In a separate bowl beat butter and sugars until well combined. Then add in the coffee, vanilla, egg, and egg yolk.
- Add in the flour mixture a little at a time until full combined.
- Roll dough into balls and then roll in sugar.
- Place each ball on a parchment lined cookie sheet and flatten slightly with the bottom of a cup.
- Bake at 350°F f or 8-10 minutes.
- Let cool and enjoy!
