I’m so excited to share this recipe with you folks today! I recently developed these cookies for company called Baker’s Choice. I’ve been a fan of theirs for a while, and I’d like to tell you a bit about them.
For kosher bakers and those in the New York area, Baker’s Choice is found to be a familiar name. But for those who haven’t heard the name before, let me introduce you to their fabulous line of baking products. They sell a full line of non dairy chocolate chips, non dairy peanut butter, caramel and, best of all, cappuccino chips. These chips are full of coffee goodness flavor, and provide a nicely different flavor from the typical chocolate. Also…coffee, duh.
Anyway, in honor of the upcoming holiday of Shavuos, my friends at Baker’s Choice asked me to develop a delicious dairy cookie recipe using their delicious chips. And I came up with these cookies. (You might have seen these cookies on the Baker’s Choice ads in various kosher magazines. Good news! They’re by me!)
I offered one to my father (who can be somewhat critical of my recipes) and he was all “oh my. These are the the best cookies you’ve ever made!” So pick up a package of these delicious chips (or use coffee flavored chocolate chips, if you can’t get your hands on any) and make them. Betcha you’ll agree!
Creamy Cappuccino Cookies:
By Miriam Pascal for Baker’s Choice, OvertimeCook.Com
Ingredients:
1 ½ sticks (¾ cup) butter, softened
6 ounces unwhipped cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 Tablespoon instant coffee powder
2 eggs
1 Tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ¼ cups cappuccino chips
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the butter and cream cheese until smooth, about a minute. Add the sugar and brown sugar and beat until smooth and creamy.
Add the vanilla extract, coffee powder, eggs and milk, beating to combine after each addition.
With the mixer on a low speed, add the baking soda and flour. Beat until just combined.
Stir in the cappuccino chips. The dough will be a bit sticky.
Drop the dough onto the prepared cookie sheets using a medium cookie scoop (or by the heaping tablespoon).
Bake at 350 for 10-11 minutes, until the tops are set.
Remove from oven and set aside to cool for a minute or two before removing from the tray.
Enjoy!
Note: their nougat chips have a wonderful hazelnuty, creamy flavor. To use in these cookies, use 2 teaspoons of vanilla and omit the coffee. Substitute equal amount of nougat chips.

Oh, these look amazing!
Hi, love your blog!! Question regarding the cream cheese, did you use whipped or the block?
Block!
I am definitely making these!
Can I use whipped cream cheese??
Can’t say for sure, I haven’t tried it.
How many cookies do I get from this recipe??
About 3 dozen.
Do these cookies freeze well?
Yes they do!
can you substitute pareve cream cheese?
Yes!
would pareve cream cheese tastejust as good?
what is the best storage method if not putting them in the freezer and how long can they stay out
Keep them in the fridge. A couple of days should be fine.
I’ve actually given up on cookies as mine invariably turn out cakey (sometimes harder on the edges but they never have that “chewy-cookie consistency” and it breaks my heart, lol). I’ll have to try these though as they sound marvelous! I’m crossing my fingers it’ll work this time…
These cookies are great! we’re baking it ever since it was advertized. I’ve heard from many friends who tried them too and absolutely LOVE them!! Just want to share with everyone out there that I’ve tried them with the Baker’s Choice Caramel chips too and it came out great!!
Is instant coffee the same as coffee powder?
Yes
How can you print recipe only from this site?
Newer recipes have a print option, but until I get all of the old recipes updates, your best bet is to copy and paste the recipe into a word document.
