Ingredients

1 cup salted butter, softened
1 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2¼ cups unbleached all purpose flour
¼ cup granulated sugar, for topping

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In the bowl of stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition and scraping sides of bowl as needed.
Beat in vanilla extract.
Add the baking soda, baking powder, salt, coffee granules, cocoa powder and flour. Mix on low just until fully combined.
Use a medium size cookie scoop or 2 tablespoons and place cookie dough scoops 3 inches apart on baking sheets.
Place ¼ cup of sugar into a bowl, dampen the bottom of a glass with wet paper towels and place the damp glass in the bowl of sugar. Flatten the cookie to ⅓ inch thick with the glass. You may have to wipe the glass clean a few times.
Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes until centers no longer look wet.
Let cool on pan for 3 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
