With just a few days left till Thanksgiving, I thought this espresso double chocolate chunk cookie recipe would be a good one to share with ya’ll today. You can bake them now, freeze them, and pull them out next week when you are in need of a quick snack or dessert. After all folks will have gotten their fix of pumpkin by then, and a chocolate cookie will hit the spot. Starting now till the New Year, our homes are more active with visits from friends and family, and it is always nice to have a homemade treat to offer them. This is my favorite cookie recipe that I originally found in a Martha Stewart magazine. It has a touch of coffee to enhance the rich chocolate flavor.
