Equipment

  • 1 Stand mixer
  • 1 Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/4 cups Einkorn flour (All purpose) 270g
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Espresso powder
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1 tsp Ginger
  • 1/4 tsp Cloves
  • 1/2 cup Salted butter (room temperature) 113g
  • 1/2 cup Granulated sugar or Coconut sugar 125g
  • 1 large Egg (Room temperature) 50 grams
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup Molasses 83 grams

Espresso Glaze

  • 3/4 cup Powdered sugar
  • 1 tbsp Brewed espresso
  • 1 tsp Cream or milk

Instructions
 

  • Preheat and prep- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
  • Whisk dry ingredients- To a large bowl whisk together einkorn flour, baking soda, salt, espresso powder, cinnamon, ginger and cloves. Set aside.
  • Cream butter and sugar- Using a paddle attachment, cream together room temperature salted butter and sugar until smooth.
  • Add in wet ingredients- Add in room temperature egg, vanilla extract and molasses and mix until well incorporated.
  • Add dry ingredients- Add in your dry ingredients. Mix until just combined, do not overmix.
  • Scoop onto tray: Using a 3 Tbsp cookie scoop, form dough into balls. Roll each ball in granulated sugar to coat, then place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing a few inches apart.
  • Bake- Bake on the middle rack in a 350 degrees Fahrenheit oven for 10-12 minutes.
  • Scoot and Bang: After baking, gently bang the pan on the countertop to help flatten the cookies and create signature cracks on top. For any uneven edges, use a round cookie cutter slightly larger than the cookies and press in a circular motion to shape them into neat, even rounds. You'll want to do this while the cookies are still hot.
  • Cool and add glaze- Allow to cool for 30 minutes and drizzle coffee glaze.

Espresso glaze

  • Add powdered sugar, brewed espresso, and cream in a bowl. Whisk together until smooth and creamy. Once the cookies have cooled, drizzle over cookies and let set.
