  4. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla, mixing until fully incorporated.

  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  7. Fold in the espresso powder, toffee bits, and mini chocolate chips.
  8. Drop dough onto prepared trays using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, spacing them about two inches apart.
  9. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden and centers are set.

Notes

Ensure your butter is browned properly for maximum flavor. Let the dough chill for about 30 minutes before baking for thicker cookies.
