Mocha Truffle Chocolate Cookies
"These cookies taste more like a mocha brownie...so fudgy and yummy, if you want a more crispier cookie, then bake a couple of minutes longer, for a chewy cookie, bake as stated...this recipe only produces approx 25-30 cookies, so double the recipe, but prepare the exact recipe in two separate mixing bowls."

This past weekened I made these cookies, but was disappointed to see how dry they were the very next day. The cookies were good the first day; especially after I tried a few shortly after I had removed them from the oven, as they were warm and oh so chocolately, (I loved the melted chocolate chips inside the cookies) but after a day or so, my husband and I did not care for them. I'm sorry KittenCal, that I wasn't able to give these cookies a much better review, but I am glad to see others enjoyed them. -
These are one of my favorite cookies I tend to usually bake around the holiday season, just because the coffee in it provides such a different taste than other cookies. Thanks for posting it. -
very good chewy, delicious and a very intense chocolate flavor. I thought these cookies were really delicious and very easy to make. My only problem was that i felt the coffee flavor was too strong. Next time i'll use a little less coffee. Very good recipe, thanks! -
These cookies are fantastic! Chewy, rich, chocolately mocha treat. YUM! I didn't add the additional chocolate chips to the batter due to personal preference. -
I made these for some Christmas cookie packages I put together recently. I made some changes; i.e., I used unsalted butter, and I used 1/2 tbsp more instant *espresso* powder for a stronger coffee punch, instead of the regular coffee granules. I also used Ghirardelli chocolate pieces for one cup of the chips and semisweet chocolate squares for the melted chocolate. These are minor changes, but thought I'd post them. They are terrific cookies--be sure not to overbake them, as they will lose their wonderful chewiness/softness that way. thanks for posting!!
