Ingredients

• Chocolate Glaze:
• 1 stick (1/2 cup) salted butter, melted
• 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
• 1/3 cup (2 ounces) unsweetened baking chocolate
• 1 1/2 tablespoons instant coffee granules
• 1 tablespoon boiling water
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 1/2 teaspoon instant coffee granules
• 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
In a large bowl, mix together the melted butter and sugar to form a grainy paste.
Place the baking chocolate in a small, microwavable bowl. Microwave the chocolate for 20 seconds, then stir. Microwave again, in 20 second intervals, stirring between each interval. Lower the time to 10 second intervals as the chocolate begins to melt. Continue microwaving until the chocolate has completely melted.
Add the melted chocolate to the sugar mixture. Mix until smooth.
Add the instant coffee granules to the boiling water. Add this mixture to the sugar mixture and mix well.
Add the egg and vanilla. Beat well.
Next, add the flour and baking soda to the sugar mixture. Mix just until combined, being careful not to overmix.
Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
Spray an 9" round baking pan with cooking spray. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake at 325 degrees for 25-26 minutes, until the cookie is cooked through.
Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then remove the cookie to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the chocolate glaze, place the heavy cream and coffee granules in a microwave safe bowl. Heat the heavy cream for 20 seconds, or until the cream is hot, but not boiling. Add the chocolate chips and stir until the chips are melted. If the chocolate does not melt completely, microwave the chocolate for additional 10 second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is smooth. Immediately drizzle the chocolate on top of the cookie pie.
Allow the chocolate to set, then cut the cookie into slices.
