Chewy Chocolate Cookies with Coffee Glaze

Chewy Chocolate Cookies with Coffee Glaze for #25DaysOfCookies on #NationalCookieDay #HousefulOfCookies | Mama Harris' KitchenIt’s cookie season! Yes, it’s that time of year where baking is at an all time high and people are searching high and low for their favorite cookie recipes, or they’re on a mission for a truly unique and one of a kind cookie. Cookies are truly my favorite thing to bake, and I love coming up with fun, new flavors to bring to life. These Chewy Chocolate Cookies with Coffee Glaze are just that kind of cookie.

This is the second year I’m joining Houseful of Nicholes in her cookie countdown to Christmas aka Houseful of Cookies. Last year I made these dreamy Cherry Pecan Thumbprint Cookies that disappeared in a mere hours after I made them. My mouth still waters when I think of them, but this year I wanted to add a little bit of a different flavor profile. I wanted something chocolatey, but not overwhelmingly so. I thought a glaze would be fun, and by the time I thought up this recipe my mouth was watering – which means I definitely had to make it.

Chewy Chocolate Cookies with Coffee Glaze for #25DaysOfCookies on #NationalCookieDay #HousefulOfCookies | Mama Harris' KitchenThese cookies started as chocolate cookies with semi-sweet chocolate chips. They were rolled in sugar before they were baked, and because they can be pretty puffy they’re flattened out a bit towards the end of the baking process to acheive the cracked look.

Once cooled, they’re carefully piped with a sweet coffee flavored glaze all over the tops of the cookies. Once the glaze hardens they’re ready to enjoy, if you’ve made it that far!

Be sure to click around at the end of this post, I’ll be updating every day with other bloggers’ cookies as we count down to Christmas!

    These cookies look really good. I like a good chewy recipe as I can not stand hard cookies. I will have to give this recipe a try this weekend.
