Servings: 24
What you'll need:
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp. Panera® Light Roast Ground Coffee
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 2 cups flour
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In large bowl, mix together butter, sugars, coffee grounds and salt, using a hand-held mixer until creamed and smooth, about 2 minutes. Slowly add flour and mix until just combined.
- On lightly floured surface, roll dough out to 1/4" thick and cut into 2 x 2" squares. Place on baking sheets about 2" apart. Bake for 20 minutes, rotating pans halfway through baking. Allow to cool on wire rack.
Or Try This:
- For a party-worthy treat, roll to 3/8” thick and use a fork or knife to press patterns into cookies. Bake 8-10 minutes longer.
- Use cookie cutters for round or seasonal shapes. Sprinkle with sanding sugar for sparkle.
- Also delicious with our Dark Roast Coffee or our other coffee varieties.
