- Ice cream scoop
Ingredients
- 113 g unsalted butter
- 100 g granulated Sugar
- 50 g brown sugar
- 1 egg
- ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 180 g all-purpose flour
- 1.5 tablespoon espresso powder

Mascarpone Cream
- 200 g mascarpone cheese
- 100 g heavy cream
- 40 g icing sugar

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 175°C/350°F. Start by combining flour, baking powder, baking soda and espresso in a medium sized bowl. Mix well.
- Next, add butter to a separate bowl and whisk for a few minutes. Then, add granulated sugar and brown sugar. Whisk for 3-5 minutes.
- Add egg and vanilla extract the batter and mix for 2 minutes.
- Then, add half of the dry ingredients to the bowl and fold gently. Add the remaining dry ingredients and whisk until incorporated.
- Use an ice cream scoop to scoop a portion of the cookie dough and gently roll it into a ball. Place the ball on the lined baking tray. Repeat with the remaining dough, ensuring each ball is spaced at least 1.5 inches apart to prevent the cookies from sticking together as they spread while baking. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
- Once done, let the cookies chill completely. In the meantime, make the mascarpone cream topping.
Mascarpone Cream
- Add cold mascarpone cheese to a separate bowl and mix for 1 minute to soften.
- Then, pour heavy cream into the bowl, icing sugar and vanilla extract, and whisk for 3-5 minutes or until fluffy - option to add the cream to a piping bag to top the cookies or use a spoon.
- Once the coffee cookies have chilled, top them with mascarpone cream and dust cocoa powder on top using a strainer.
- Serve these decadent tiramisu cookies for dessert.

Notes
- Kitchen Scale: Use a kitchen scale to weigh all ingredients accurately for this recipe. This ensures the cookies have the right texture and the cream maintains its proper consistency.
- Over-mixing: Avoid over-mixing the cookie dough, as it will lead to hard, chewy cookies. Mix just until the ingredients are incorporated.
- Cookie Scoot: Once the cookies are baked, place a cookie cutter on top and gently move it in a circular motion to give them a perfectly round shape.
- Cooled Cookies: Let the cookies cool completely before topping with mascarpone cream to prevent melting.
- Topping: These cookies can also be topped with cream cheese frosting, easy coffee buttercream, vanilla buttercream, milk chocolate ganache frosting, or whipped cream.
