Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 tsp espresso powder
  • 8 oz unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 tbsp Baileys Irish Cream Liqueur
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature
  • 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

Prepare the Dough:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, and espresso powder. Set aside.
  • In another bowl, beat the butter, dark brown sugar, and granulated sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Add vanilla extract and Baileys Irish Cream to the butter mixture and beat until combined.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
  • Gradually fold the flour mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

Chill the Dough:

  • Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, up to 3 days. This step enhances flavor and texture.

Bake the Cookies:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Roll 3-tablespoon-sized scoops of dough into balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them apart.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges are golden but the centers are still soft.
  • Cool on the baking sheet for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For added variety, try mixing in different types of chocolate or adding nuts. For a non-alcoholic version, substitute Baileys with Irish Cream coffee creamer.
