Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, coffee granules, cocoa powder, and baking powder.
  3. Cream together the butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add eggs and vanilla to the mixture and continue mixing until fully combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low until just combined.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about two inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden and centers remain soft, then let cool.
  8. Prepare espresso syrup by combining equal parts espresso and sugar in a saucepan; heat until dissolved and cool.
  9. Blend mascarpone cheese until smooth; add a splash of vanilla extract for extra flavor.
  10. Assemble by spreading frosting on one cookie, drizzle with espresso syrup, and top with another cookie.
  11. Dust tops with cocoa powder for an elegant finish.
  12. Allow to sit for a few minutes before serving.
