-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well until fully combined.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, instant espresso powder, baking powder, and salt.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth dough forms.
-
Shape the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter.

Roll each ball in additional sugar to coat before placing them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving a bit of space between each cookie.
-
Gently flatten each cookie with the bottom of a glass or your fingers before baking.
