Frequently asked Questions about Mocha Cookies.
Mocha cookies are a flavor or category of cookie.
These cookies are usually made with both coffee and chocolate.
Mocha flavoring features a balance between the 'bitterness' of coffee and the sweet and rich flavor of chocolate. Because of the colors of both the coffee and the chocolate, these cookies are usually dark brown in color.
The secret to any good cookie lies in the flavor, texture and softness or crunchiness of the cookie. Some cookies are intended to be crunchy while other cookies are best when soft.
To insure that your cookies are good, use fresh ingredients and follow the instructions for making the cookies. When it comes to mocha cookies, use good espresso for a 'mocha' flavor and good cocoa and chocolate chips to balance out that mocha flavor.
Tips for making mocha chocolate chip cookies.
This recipe calls for brewed espresso coffee that has been cooled in the refrigerator. However, you can use another coffee, such as decaf (which may alter the flavor of the cookies as a result).
More helpful tips for you
- The chocolate chips really add to the flavor and enjoyment of these cookies. Try using a combination of milk chocolate and dark chocolate or a broken up chocolate bar to make these cookies even better!
- To prevent the cookie dough from spreading too much in the oven, the cookie dough needs to be refrigerated for at least 15 minutes. However, you can easily make the dough ahead of time and refrigerating it or freezing it until you are ready to bake the cookies. If you are freezing the dough, allow it to that out a bit first so that it is easier for you to work with.
- When you take the cookies out of the oven, they may seem to be too soft. This is okay as the cookies will set while they start the cooling process sitting on the baking sheets.
How to store chocolate chip mocha cookies.
These cookies should be stored in an airtight container. If properly stored, they should keep for about five days at room temperature or up to a few months when frozen.

Ingredients needed to make Sugar Free Mocha Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Flour. All purpose flour was used to make my cookies. I have not tried an alternative such as gluten free all purpose flour or low carbohydrate all purpose flour.
- Unsweetened Cocoa Powder. Darked cocoa powder will yield you darker cookies if you want to make darker cookies.
- Baking Soda. Added for leavening.
- Butter. Your butter should be at room temperature. Also, if you are using unsalted butter, add a half teaspoon of salt to the dry ingredients.
- Sugar Free Brown Sugar Alternative and Sugar Free Granulated Sugar. For best results, please select alternatives that measure like sugar and that can also be baked with.
- Espresso Coffee. Your coffee should be chilled for this recipe.
- Egg. Have your egg at room temperature for this recipe.
- Vanilla Extract. For even more of a coffee flavor, you can sub in coffee extract for part or all of the vanilla extract.
- Sugar Free Chocolate Chips. I like milk chocolate chips but, really you can try dark chocolate or a combination of chips.
- Optional, chopped nuts or sugar free white chocolate chips.
How to make Sugar Free Mocha Chocolate Chip Cookies
Prep Time- 10 minutes.
Refrigerate Time- 15 minutes.
Bake Time- 12 minutes.
Yields about 24 cookies, 2 cookies per serving.
How to make these cookies.
- In a medium bowl use a whisk to blend together the flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and baking soda.
- Next, in a mixing bowl and using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment (preferred method), beat together the softened butter with both of the sugar alternatives until smooth. Then add the espresso, eggs, and vanilla and mix until combined.
- Add the dry ingredients from the first bowl to the mixing bowl and mix until combined. Then fold in the chocolate chips.
- Use plastic wrap to tightly cover the bowl and refrigerate the cookie dough for at least 15 minutes.
- When you are ready to bake the cookies, preheat your oven to 350 and prep two baking sheets for nonstick (I like parchment paper for a recipe such as this one).
- Use a cookie scoop to scoop out the cookie dough (mine were made with a large scoop) to scoop out the dough for the cookies.
- Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or until the edges of the cookies appear to be set. Then take the baking sheets out of the oven and let the cookie continue to set for another three minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
Expert Tip👉 Adding an extra egg can make your cookie more moist and chewy. If you decide to do so, you may need to adjust the baking time by a minute or two.
