My son, husband and I really enjoyed these cookies! I love the coffee flavor! Thanks ellie!

Wow, these cookies are intensely chocolatey and delicious! I can't really taste the coffee much, but it definitely gives the cookies a bolder flavor. I had to mix the dough with my hands, since my food processor isn't big enough to handle the job, but other than that I followed the directions excactly. Thanks for a great new cookie recipe, Ellie!

Delicious! I couldn't really taste the coffee flavor. Next time I'll use 4 tsp. Here's what I did differently: I added 1 tsp. baking powder and 1\2 tsp. salt. These I mixed with the flour. I creamed the rest of the ingredients, then added the dry stuff; and the chocolate chips last. They turned out great! We served them to college students at a party, and they said they could taste the coffee even though I couldn't.

My husband loves these cookies! They're kind of a pain in the butt to make I think though; very different than a normal recipe. I made sure that everything was mixed very well in the food processor; blended longer and also split up the dough in halves or quarters to fit in the processor (and my food processor is pretty average to big) than after it was all mixed added the groups together and reblended. This cookie is worth it though! thanks for the recipe!
