Ingredients
  

For the Cookies:

  • 1/2 cup vegan butter softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tbsp espresso powder
  • 1 tbsp hot water
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips

For the Coffee Cream Filling:

  • 1/4 cup vegan butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tbsp strong brewed coffee cooled
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking tray with parchment like the well-prepared queen you are.
  • Dissolve espresso powder in hot water—yes, this is your emotional support shot.
  • Cream vegan butter with brown and coconut sugar until fluffy and slightly smug.
  • Mix in espresso and vanilla. Feel powerful.
  • Add flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir until it becomes a soft, clingy dough.
  • Fold in chocolate chips like you're folding laundry (except this brings joy).
  • Scoop dough onto tray. Bake for 12 minutes or until golden around the edges and slightly gooey in the middle.
  • Cool cookies completely. No shortcuts—unless you enjoy frosting melt-downs.
  • For filling: beat vegan butter, powdered sugar, coffee, vanilla, and salt until smooth and spreadable like your favorite excuse.
  • Pair cookies by size. Spread or pipe coffee cream between them. Press gently, inhale deeply, and bite gloriously.
