Chewy espresso cookies with a creamy mascarpone frosting, dusted with cocoa for a delightful tiramisu flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons instant espresso powder, dissolved in 1 tablespoon hot water
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder, for dusting

Instructions

  1. Cream together butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
  3. Stir in the dissolved espresso mixture.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  7. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 9-11 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
  8. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. While cookies cool, prepare the frosting: Beat together mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  10. Once cookies are completely cool, spread or pipe the mascarpone frosting onto the bottom of one cookie and top with another.
  11. Dust the tops of the cookies with unsweetened cocoa powder.

Notes

  • For a stronger espresso flavor, you can add an extra teaspoon of espresso powder to the dough.
  • Ensure cookies are completely cool before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
