INGREDIENTS USED IN CHOCOLATE COOKIE CUPS WITH COLD COFFEE
BUTTER
I have used salted butter for these chocolate cookie cups with cold coffee. Feel free to use unsalted if that’s what you have in hand. Make sure you add a pinch of salt in case you are using unsalted butter and don’t forget to start with softened butter.
ICING CUGAR
I have used icing sugar in these chocolate cookie cups with cold coffee., but incase you are unable to get your hands on it, you can use a combination of powdered sugar and corn flour in place of icing sugar. For each cup of icing sugar, you will need equal quantity of powdered sugar and one and a half tablespoon of corn flour.
VANILLA EXTRACT
Using the best kind of vanilla has always made all the difference in any dessert. Please avoid using vanilla essence as it is not real but synthetic and chemically made vanilla flavour. Make sure you use good quality vanilla extract or bean for these chocolate cookie cups with cold coffee. I recommend this one.

ALL PURPOSE FLOUR
I have used regular maida or all-purpose flour in these chocolate cookie cups with cold coffee. If you would like, you can substitute it with whole wheat flour or use a combination of both. Add a tablespoon of milk if you try it with aata than maida.
COCOA POWDER
Using a good quality cocoa powder is very important. I personally really like using Hershey’s but you can use any good dark cocoa powder. Cocoa powder is actually one of the most significant ingredients in these chocolate cookie cups with cold coffee.
DARK CHOCOLATE
I always suggest using a good quality chocolate while baking. Brands like van houten, callebaut and amul have good quality chocolate.
