Coffee with chocolate is a perfect match,each improving the flavour of the other. Look for chocolate-covered espresso beans in coffee stores or bulk areas in supermarkets— they’re expensive but worth it. The cookies will last beautifully in an airtight container.

Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk flour with baking powder and salt.

2 In the top of a double boiler, melt chocolate with butter and espresso powder. Scrape into a large bowl. Whisk in sugar then eggs, 1 at a time until blended, then vanilla. Stir in flour mixture. Stir in chocolate chips, coconut, pecans, dried cherries and chocolate-covered espresso beans. Refrigerate to let dough firm up slightly, about 1 hour.

3 Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).

4 Drop dough by tablespoon on a parchmentlined baking sheet about 1 inch (2.5 cm) apart. Bake in preheated oven until just set on top, 8 to 10 minutes. Leave on baking sheet for about 1 minute so that cookies firm up enough to transfer to a rack. Cool completely.
