Mocha-Chocolate Shortbread

Ingredients:
  • 1-1/4 C flour
  • 1/2 C powdered sugar
  • 2 tsp. instant coffee granules (or 1 tsp. espresso powder)
  • 2/3 C butter
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla
  • 2 C (12oz.) semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
Instructions:

Preheat oven to 325.

Combine first 3 ingredients in a medium bowl; add butter and vanilla, and beat at low speed with an electric mixer until blended. Stir in 1 cup chocolate chips.

Press dough into an ungreased 9-inch square pan; prick dough with a fork.

Bake for 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Sprinkle remaining 1 cup chips over top; spread to cover once chips have melted. Cut shortbread into 25 (about 1 3/4-inch) squares; cut each square into 2 triangles. Let cool 30 minutes in pan before removing.
