Coffee & Chocolate Butter Cookies

Butter Cookies with coffee and chocolate. Includes measured ingredients and a step-by-step method.

Ingredients

• 150 g soft unsalted butter
• 65 g caster sugar
• 220 g all-purpose flour
• ¼ tsp salt
• 1 tsp instant coffee dissolved in 1 tsp warm water
• 20 g finely chopped dark chocolate

Method

1. Cream butter and sugar until smooth. Mix in the coffee and chocolate ingredients, then stir in flour and salt to form a soft dough.
2. Shape into a log about 4 cm across. Wrap and refrigerate for 25 minutes or until firm enough to slice.
3. Heat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Slice the log into 8 mm rounds and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between them.
4. Bake 15–18 minutes until the edges are lightly colored. Cool for 5 minutes on the tray, then transfer to a rack.
