Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
-
In a separate large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
-
Stir in the Kahlua coffee liqueur until well combined with the butter-sugar mixture.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the dough.
-
Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
-
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
-
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. The centers may seem slightly underbaked, but they will continue to set as they cool.
-
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Store Kahlua Chocolate Chip Cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. For longer storage, you can freeze the cookies for up to 3 months, allowing them to thaw at room temperature before enjoying.
