Espresso Mocha Cookies—because coffee and chocolate are everything. And when you combine them in cookie form? Pure magic.
These cookies are like the lovechild of your morning latte and your guilty chocolate indulgence. Vegan, of course, so no cows were harmed in the making of these delights.
Crunchy, chewy, with a rich mocha flavor—this is what adulthood tastes like. So, go ahead, have one (or five), and pretend you’re actually getting your daily coffee fix.
Warning: After you make these, store-bought cookies will seem like a sad joke.
