Recipe of the Week:

Cardamom and Espresso Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon ground cardamom

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups brown sugar, firmly packed

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1/2 cup white sugar

2 large eggs, at room temperature

2 tablespoons instant espresso powder

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 (12 ounce) bag semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, cardamom, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl.

Cream brown sugar, butter, and white sugar together in a bowl until fluffy. Beat in eggs 1 at a time until thoroughly combined. Mix in instant espresso powder and vanilla extract.

Mix flour mixture into the butter mixture until just combined; do not overmix. Fold in chocolate chips.

Drop dough by the tablespoon onto the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.

Bake in the preheated oven until edges of cookies are set, 10 to 15 minutes. Cool cookies on the pans 2 to 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
