These cookies combine the nutty aroma of browned butter, bold coffee flavor, and sweet crunch of toffee for a treat that’s buttery, chewy, and packed with flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, browned
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee granules
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup toffee bits

Instructions

  1. Heat the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until it turns golden brown and releases a nutty aroma (about 5 minutes). Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the browned butter with the brown sugar and granulated sugar until smooth.
  3. Crack in the eggs and add the vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined and creamy.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and instant coffee granules.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring with a rubber spatula until just combined.
  6. Gently stir in the toffee bits, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  9. Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Chilling the dough is essential for better texture and preventing spreading. Adjust for altitude by adding an extra tablespoon of flour. Remove cookies from the oven when edges are set but centers are slightly underdone.
