Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 180° C (350°F) for 10 minutes. Line baking tray with parchment paper.
  • In a bowl add in the chopped chocolate and butter. Melt them together using double boiler method. You can microwave them in a microwave safe bowl for few seconds stirring well in between until the chocolate is completely smooth and melted. Do not overheat the chocolate as this can burn it.

  • Add in vanilla essence, milk, coffee powder, oil and mix well until combined.
  • Sieve in the flour, baking powder and salt. Mix until combined. The dough will be soft.
  • Cling wrap the bowl and refrigerate it for 10-15 minutes.
  • Scoop a tablespoon of the dough and gently press down the scooped dough. You need to press only slightly and not completely flatten the dough.
  • I have top some of the cookies with chocolate chips.
  • Use a standard size cookie scoop to scoop out the cookies onto the prepared baking tray. I used 1 tablespoon measuring spoon to scoop the dough.
  • Keep some distance in between the cookies as the cookies will expand as it bakes.
  • Bake the cookies at a preheated oven @180° C for 12 minutes or until the cookies have crackled and are set on the edges, but still gooey in the middle.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to stand for 5-10 minutes, then transfer them onto a cooling rack.
  • Enjoy once the cookies has cooled down completely.
