Disney4me Posted December 31, 2024 Report Share Posted December 31, 2024 It’s cookie time! Mele Kalikimaka 2024 Like one of our favorite Muppets, we think one of the many key ingredients – – see what we did there – – to an A+ meal is a cookie dessert. And, as anyone who’s been to Disney World knows, the resort features a large assortment of cookies, with something for every palette. Today, we’re looking at one of our favorite Disney World cookies, and how you can make it at home! The Coffee Mocha Cookie from the Mele Kalikimaka Holiday Kitchen booth is one of our favorite snacks at EPCOT’s International Festival of the Holidays. The following recipe would make 18-20 of the coffee-infused buttercream, cocoa nibs, and chocolate-covered espresso bean-topped cookies. Coffee Mocha Cookie First up, the ingredients. To make a batch of Coffee Mocha Cookies, you’ll need the following: Cookies 2 3/4 cups 1:1 gluten-free flour 3 tablespoons cocoa powder 2 tablespoons instant coffee 1 teaspoon cream of tartar 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/8 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 cups butter, room temperature 2 cups sugar 4 eggs 1 1/2 tablespoons coffee extract 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract Buttercream: 1 cup butter, at room temperature 3 cups powdered sugar 4 tablespoons coffee extract 1 tablespoon vanilla extract Toppings: 60 chocolate-covered espresso beans 1/4 cup grated cocoa nibs Coffee Mocha Cookie Cooking Instructions for the Cookies: Preheat oven to 325°F. Line 2 baking sheets with silicone mat or parchment paper. Mix gluten-free flour, cocoa powder, instant coffee, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt together in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Cream butter and sugar in the bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add half of gluten-free flour mixture and beat on low speed until incorporated. Add eggs, coffee extract, and vanilla extract and mix on low speed until smooth. While mixer is on low speed, add remaining flour and beat for 1-2 minutes until fully mixed. Cover and chill dough in refrigerator for 30 minutes. Use a 1/4 cup scoop to shape cookie dough into balls. Place 6 cookies on each prepared baking sheet and gently flatten to 3/4-inch thickness. Bake for 10-12 minutes until cookie tops just begin to crack, but center remains slightly soft. Cool on pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks until room temperature. Repeat with remaining dough until all cookies are complete. Cooking Instructions for Buttercream: Place butter in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat on high speed until there are no lumps. Add half of the powdered sugar and beat on medium speed until combined. Add remaining powdered sugar and beat on medium speed until combined. Increase speed to high and beat until fluffy. Add coffee and vanilla extracts and beat until fully incorporated. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. When ready to serve, spread 1-2 tablespoons of coffee buttercream on top of each cooled cookie then add 3 chocolate-covered espresso beans and desired amount of grated cocoa nibs to the top of each cookie.
