Ingredients
  

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup packed brown sugar

4 large eggs

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons instant espresso powder

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

½ cup walnuts or pecans, chopped (optional)

Flaky sea salt, for topping (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

      Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, and instant espresso powder.

        Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if a few flour streaks remain.

          Add Chocolate and Nuts: Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped nuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

            Scoop the Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

              Bake the Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly underbaked. Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

                Finishing Touch: For an extra touch, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on each cookie while they are still warm.

                  Serve and Enjoy: Allow the cookies to cool completely on the wire rack before indulging in these chewy, espresso-infused delights. Perfect with a cup of coffee!
