Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon espresso powder
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ tablespoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup Heath toffee bits with chocolate
  • Flaked sea salt for topping

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Cook until golden brown and nutty in aroma. Transfer to a bowl, stir in espresso powder, and refrigerate until firm (1-2 hours).
  2. Beat the solidified browned butter and sugars in a stand mixer until light and fluffy (3-4 minutes).
  3. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Add baking powder, baking soda, salt, and flour. Mix on low speed just until combined.
  5. Fold in toffee bits evenly throughout the dough.
  6. Scoop large dough balls onto a tray and refrigerate for several hours or up to 24 hours for best results.
  7. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Arrange dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, sprinkle with flaked sea salt, and bake for approximately 11-13 minutes or until edges are golden.
  8. Allow cookies to cool slightly before transferring them to a wire rack.
