Equipment

  • 1 Standmixer

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter room temp, 226 grams
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar 200 grams
  • ½ cup granulated white sugar 100 grams
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 tbsp instant espresso powder
  • ½ cup + 1 tablespoon BLACK cocoa powder
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour 375 grams
  • ¾ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 4 oz chopped milk chocolate bar
  • 8 ounces of chopped toffee bars I used heath, you can use homemade toffee but the cookies will be flatter

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, combine all dry ingredients (flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt) mix together with a whisk or fork to combine and set aside
  • In the bowl of a stand-mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, add the butter and the sugars
  • Cream together on medium speed for about 5 minutes, pausing halfway through to scrape the sides of the bowl
  • Add in the eggs and mix again, making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl again
  • Add in the espresso powder and mix, the moisture from the eggs will help the granules dissolve. Scrape down the sides of the bowl
  • Add in the dry ingredients AND the chopped chocolate + chopped toffee and mix until thick dough forms. Adding these all together will help disperse the chocolate and toffee throughout the cookie!
  • Cover the dough with saran wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour
  • Scoop dough into 6 oz sized balls (alternatively, you can scoop into 4 oz size balls if you wish for a slightly smaller cookie)
  • Preheat the oven to 415 degrees and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper
  • Bake cookies, leaving at least 5 inches in between them, for 10 minutes. Top with extra pieces of chopped toffee and flakey salt!
