by When it comes to decadent cookies these Triple Chocolate Cookies certainly fit the bill.

They’re a trifecta of pure cocoa and chock full of both semisweet and white chocolate chunks as well as white chocolate chips.
The addition of instant coffee granules elevates these heavenly cookies with amazing mocha flavour!
You’ll find them soft and chewy with loads of gooey melted chocolate when bitten into…just the way I like my cookies.
These triple chocolate cookies are just about ready to hit the oven right after mixing the dough together. However, if you love and want more of that concentrated chocolate flavour, then do chill the dough overnight.
This cookie dough is a rather stiff dough to start off with. So, if you do chill the dough overnight then simply remember to allow the dough to sit at room temperature for about an hour or two. This will make it easier to scoop out and bake.
A good old tablespoon is enough to scoop up chunks of cookie dough for baking. However, if you have a small ice-cream scoop of about 1 and a half inch to 2 inches, this would work even better. It allows you to swoop in and scoop and releases the cookie dough without much effort.
You’ll probably get a good 3 dozen medium size cookies…give or take a few!
However you can make them larger if you wish.
Simply remember to adjust the baking time accordingly for bigger cookies.
Tips for making soft triple chocolate cookies
A useful tip to chewy gooey cookies, is not to over bake them.
For cookies with soft and chewy centres, bake them for about 8 minutes. They’ll be very fragile when removed from the oven so allow them to cool in the baking pan placed over a cooling rack.
If you like them crispier around the edges then simply bake them for 10 to 12 minutes.

Notes
Beautiful Marisa ! Keeping for next holidays ! Thank you !
They’ll make a perfect Valentine’s treat…enjoy!
I’d be afraid of eating a dozen in a row if I had a plate of those in front of me. But I may tempt myself anyway.
Haha…I may have done just that! They’re simply irresistible! Thanks Linda🙏🏻
Loving that chocolate-coffee combo! These look amazing. I’m planning to try them with G/F flour! Thanks for the inspiration.
I would so love to know how they turn out with gluten free flour Elaine! G/f flour is something I experiment with a lot and just recently I’ve had a few fails making G/F scones. Thanks so much Elaine😊
Oh my goodness, these cookies look heavenly. I love how coffee enhances the flavour of the chocolate. Thanks for sharing!
The coffee granules are a remarkable addition and truly elevates these cookies to “heavenly”! We can never get enough of these!
They look so decadent! How can you go wrong with triple chocolate and the coffee granules that give the mocha flavor? Thank you also for the tips on how long to bake them according to how you like them.
No way can we mess up the flavours here, they’re a winner! There’s definitely a cookie texture for every palate…I prefer the softer ones! Thanks so much!
Oh man Marisa! You can’t tempt me with these cookies. I could eat the whole pan!
Oh I hear you! We practically did just that! Thanks so much Meg 🙂
You seriously can’t go wrong with triple chocolate! I love that you included white chocolate, and the coffee is a nice touch. These would be perfect for dunking in milk (or almond milk in my case!)
I’m a fan of almond milk as well and these would definitely pair well with a glass full Leanne!
