Ingredients

  • 220 gms – 1 ¾ cup all purpose flour
  • 150 gms – 2/3 cup butter
  • 100 gms – ¾ cup + 1 tbsp icing sugar
  • 30 gms – 1/3 cup instant coffee powder
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Granulated sugar for coating

Instructions

  1. Cream the butter and icing sugar with a hand held mixer in a large bowl.
  2. Add the egg yolks and vanilla extract and keep whisking.
  3. Add the flour and coffee powder and beat until just combined.
  4. Shape the dough into 3 logs and wrap them in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  5. Roll the logs in granulated sugar and cut them into 1 cm - ⅓″ slices.
  6. Bake the cookies on a baking sheet lined with baking paper at 180°C – 355°F for 10-15 minutes, or until just golden around the edges.

  7. When cooked, let them cool down on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool down completely.
