Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Vanilla Latte Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and let it warm for about 10-15 minutes.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, espresso powder, and a pinch of salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the salted butter with the brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, gently fold in the vanilla bean paste.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
  6. Scoop the dough onto a lined baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the centers remain soft.
  8. Let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  9. Mix powdered sugar, brewed coffee, and vanilla extract in a small bowl for the glaze.
  10. Once cooled, drizzle or spread the vanilla coffee glaze over each cookie.
