Tiramisu Cookies

☕ Tiramisu Cookies

Soft, rich cookies with swirls of chocolate and espresso, finished with a creamy mascarpone center and a dusting of cocoa powder.

Ingredients

For the cookies

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 teaspoons instant espresso powder
• 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chunks

For the mascarpone cream

• 4 oz mascarpone cheese, softened
• 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
• 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

For topping

• Unsweetened cocoa powder

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
3. In another bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy. Mix in the egg, vanilla, and espresso powder.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients. Fold in the chocolate chunks.
5. Scoop the dough into large balls and place them several inches apart on the baking sheet. Gently flatten each one and make a shallow indentation in the center.
6. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are set but the centers remain soft. Cool completely.
7. Beat mascarpone, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until thick and creamy.
8. Spoon or pipe mascarpone cream into the center of each cooled cookie.
9. Finish with a generous dusting of cocoa powder.

Tip: Refrigerate the finished cookies for about 20–30 minutes before serving for an even creamier tiramisu-style texture.
