Ingredients

  • Reynolds(R) Parchment Paper
  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 package (8 oz.) toffee bits, divided
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chunks
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted

Method

  • PREHEAT oven to 350°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with Reynolds Parchment Paper; set aside. On another sheet of parchment paper, combine flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt; set aside.
  • BEAT butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar together in a large bowl, on medium speed with an electric mixer, until light and fluffy. Dissolve instant coffee in milk. Beat in coffee mixture, eggs and vanilla until well blended.
  • ADD flour mixture gradually to creamed mixture; beat on low speed just until blended. Reserve 3/4 cup toffee bits; stir remaining toffee bits into dough. Drop by heaping tablespoons about 2-inches apart onto parchment-lined cookie sheets. Combine chocolate chunks, almonds and reserved toffee bits; set aside.
  • BAKE 4 minutes (cookies will still be wet on top.) Remove from oven; press cookie flat with the back of the measuring spoon. Sprinkle 1 heaping tablespoon almond-toffee mixture onto each cookie. Using the back of the measuring spoon again, lightly press topping into dough to form a larger round cookie.
  • CONTINUING BAKING 8 to 9 minutes longer or until cookies are set. Do not over bake. Slide parchment with cookies onto a wire rack to cool.
  • REYNOLDS KITCHENS TIPS:
  • - Toast almonds in skillet over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until browned.
  • - A #30 size scoop works perfectly for dropping cookie dough onto cookie sheets.
