Ingredients

The following ingredients have 9 Servings
  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons instant espresso powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened but still cool)
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • Fleur de sel (for sprinkling)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
  • Whisk together the flour, espresso powder, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Beat the butter on medium speed until creamy. Add the sugars; beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs, 1 at a time.
  • Stir the dry ingredients into the butter-sugar mixture with a wooden spoon or large rubber spatula. Stir in the oats and chocolate chips.
  • Working with a generous 2 tablespoons of dough each time, roll the dough into 2-inch balls. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them at least 2 inches apart. Sprinkle the tops with a pinch of fleur de sel.
  • Bake until the cookie edges turn golden brown, 22 to 25 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes. Transfer the cookies with a wire rack and let cool for at least 30 minutes.
