  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Brown the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until golden brown and nutty-smelling (about 5-7 minutes). Let it cool slightly.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the browned butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time along with the vanilla extract.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, instant coffee granules, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined. Fold in chocolate toffee bits gently.
  6. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  7. Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets and bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden but centers remain soft.
  8. Let cool on sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks.
