Cappuccino bars




Preheat oven to 350° - in a mixing bowl, combine & mix well:

1 cup soft butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
3 tsps. instant coffee dissolved in 1 tsp. HOT water (OR use espresso powder dissolved in water for a stronger tasting cookie)

Combine dry ingredients, then slowly add to batter - mix thoroughly:

1/2 c. unsweetened cocoa
1 tsp. baking powder
2-1/4 cups flour

Stir in 1 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips.

Divide the dough into 4 sections. On 2 parchment lined baking sheets, shape (4) cylinders, then pat them into long, thin rectangles (about 1/4" high - 2" wide X 10" long), leaving a couple inches of space between the rectangles.

Bake for approx. 14-16 minutes until slightly firm. Remove from oven and cool 10 minutes. Cut rectangles into slices, around 1/2". Cool completely.

Melt 1 to 1-1/2 cups white chocolate and drizzle over cooled bars. Put in a cool place (or in the fridge for 10 minutes) to allow chocolate to set.
