• tempo total: 25 minutes

Ingredientes

1 cup (226 g) unsalted butter

1 tablespoon instant powder espresso

2½ cups (300 g) all purpose flour

2 teaspoons cornstarch

1 teaspoon baking powder

¼ teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1½ cups (300 g) granulated sugar

1 large egg (US), room temperature

1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract

8 oz. mascarpone cheese, cold

1½ cups (180 g) powdered sugar

2 teaspoons instant powder espresso

1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract

1 cup (237 ml) cold heavy whipping cream

2 tablespoons (10 g) cocoa powder (for dusting)

Instruções

Melt

In a small bowl, melt the butter and whisk in the espresso powder. Transfer to the fridge and cool for about 10 minutes.

Whisk

In another bowl whisk together the flour, contarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

Whisk

In a large mixing bowl, whisk in the cooled espresso butter with the granulated sugar until well combined. Whisk in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined. I like to do this about ½ of the dry ingredients at a time.

Scoop

Preheat the oven to 375 F (190 C) for about 20-30 minutes before baking the cookies. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Allow the dough to rest while the oven preheats for 30 minutes.Using a medium cookie scoop (2 tablespoons, 30 ml), scoop the cookie dough and place the cookie dough balls onto the lined baking sheet about 3 inches (8 cm) apart.

Bake and Cool

Bake at 375 F (190 C) for 10 - 12 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are set and the centers are slightly puffed. Cool the chewy coffee sugar cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely to room temperature. Make the mascarpone frosting while the cookies cool.

Whisk

On low, whisk the mascarpone cheese until smooth. Once smooth, mix in the espresso powder, vanilla extract and powdered sugar until well combined.

Beat

Once all the sugar has been added, mix in the heavy cream slowly on low speed. Once all the heavy cream has been added, increase the mixer speed to medium for about 2 - 3 minutes or until the frosting is light and fluffy.

Assemble

Top the soft and chewy espresso sugar cookies with 1 -2 tablespoons (15 - 30 ml) mascarpone frosting. Use the back of a spoon or an icing spatula to smoot the frosting across the top in a circular motion. Dust with cocoa powder and enjoy.
