Instructions

Creating these Soft Gingerbread Latte Cookies is straightforward when you follow these steps:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt. Set aside.
3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add Egg and Molasses: Incorporate the egg, molasses, and vanilla extract into the butter mixture, beating until smooth.
5. Combine Coffee: Gradually add the cooled brewed coffee to the mixture, stirring until well combined.
6. Combine Mixtures: Slowly add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined, ensuring not to overmix.
7. Scoop Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
8. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers remain soft.
9. Cool: Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Make the Glaze: In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Adjust thickness by adding more milk or sugar as desired.
11. Decorate Cookies: Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cookies using a fork or piping bag for a decorative touch.
