How to prepare Soft Coffee Cookies
- To prepare the soft coffee cookies as first thing put the soft butter in a bowl together with the sugar. With a wooden spoon work it all until you have obtained a soft and creamy mixture.
- Add the egg first, then mix again and when it is absorbed add the yolk as well. Mix again and add the lukewarm coffee.
- Incorporate it into the rest of the ingredients and add the flour. Stir again to allow the flour to be absorbed.
- Finally add the yeast 10 and mix one last time. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest in the refrigerator for half an hour.
- Then take the dough again and from it make balls the size of a walnut. Dip them first in caster sugar and then in powdered sugar.
- Arrange them as you go on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them apart. You will get about 30. Then bake in a static oven preheated to 160°C (325°F) for 15 minutes. After this time has elapsed, take them out of the oven and let them cool before transferring them to a serving dish.
