Ingredients

• 3/4 cup butter
• 2 tablespoons instant coffee granules
• 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup sugar

Preparation

Step 1

Combine butter and coffee in a small saucepan. Cook over medium low heat until butter melts and coffee dissolves, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, and let cool to room temperature. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside. Combine butter mixture, sugars, egg and egg yolk. Beat at medium speed until blended. Gradually add flour mixture, beating at low speed just until blended. Stir in chocolate chunks and walnuts. Drop dough by tablespoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 325° for 12 to 14 minutes. Cool slightly before removing from baking sheets. Remove from wire racks to cool completely.
