Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon instant coffee or espresso powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Powdered sugar for coating

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, instant coffee or espresso powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
  4. Beat in eggs, one at a time, followed by vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up and enhance flavors.
  7. Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough, roll into balls, and generously coat with powdered sugar.
  8. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are set but still soft in the center.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
