Caffeine Cookies
Blogger and Coffee fiend Chris Howard gives us his recipe for creating caffeinated cookies.
Basically he starts off with a standard oatmeal cookie recipe (like this one here).
Then the magic:
Being an experimenter, I don’t write anything down, but here’s the basic formula for super-wicked oatmeal coffee chocolate chip cookies: Take your normal oatmeal cookie recipe, and if it calls for liquid (some do) put in some very strong coffee. Then grind some really good medium roast coffee beans into powder, adding at least two tablespoons to your dry ingredients. That’s it.
I would say at least two tablespoons – this is about the amount of coffee used to make a double-shot (doppio) espresso.
I would take it a step further. Why not use caffeinated oatmeal in the mix?
Maybe I’m getting a bit silly now.

Or even better add some purecaf to it! Still though I think the coffee flavor would rock with the chocolate chips. Anyone tried the purecaf yet? I had forgot about it till I read this.
Hmm…any alternatives to people who don’t drink/use coffee?
I made some cookies with the following recipe:
Melt 1/2 cup of butter
Stir in:
1/2 cup of brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar.
1 egg
Mix well.
To this mixture, add:
1/2 Tsp salt
1/2 Tsp Baking Soda
3/4 cup White Flour, sifted
1/3-3/4 cup coffee, finely ground into a powder
Mix well.
Add 1/2 cup chocolate chips or your favorite nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans, etc.)
Drop cookie dough onto greased cookie sheet and bake for 10 minutes @ 375F. Makes approx. 10 cookies.
These cookies will be highly caffienated, each cookie having roughly 1 cup of coffee.
The big trick of getting this recipe right is the amount of flour vs. coffee powder to add. Adjust coffee added to recipe based on moisture. You want a gooey mixture that isn’t too dry. And make sure you grind the coffee beans to a fine powder. Otherwise cookies will be gritty, like eating sand.
Try it and let me know whatcha all think.
were from oak lawn illinois and we have to do a project on caffeine. we are too lazy and cheap to buy all the ingredients to make these delicioso sounding cookies for our psych class. can u please bake the cookies for us and mail them to po box oak lawn community high school, room 351 (the detention room),mrs herlihy, period 4. im sure our very rich school will be able to afford to pay you for your services. thank you. these better be damn good. good day. please have the cookies mailed to us by monday september 31. just have them to us by monday or else. thank you. again. –
LOL Caffeinated cookies!
By the way, oak lawn boy, there is no September 31st. You may as well get them mailed to you on October 32nd.
Why not just grind up say 3-4 Vivarin or break open a few Yellow Jackets and mix in when you are combining the dry ingredients. WOW, thats such an amazing idea, I’m gonna try that.
their pretty good, but make sure to grind the coffee a very very long time.
lmfao,il make a weed cookie instead ,thanks .
You could also use caffeine powder so you dont hafta ground stuff up. I believe I got mine from http://www.bodybuilder.com or something similar to that. If you cant find it search for it. The caffeine powder has a strong taste but if I can disguise the taste easily in kool-aid then im sure it will be indetecable in cookies. Good luck guys!
