Scale

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Brown the unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat until it turns a golden brown color and smells nutty. Remove it from heat and let it cool slightly.

- Combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and browned butter in a large mixing bowl. Stir until well combined.

- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just incorporated.
- Fold in the chopped chocolate and finely chopped coffee beans until evenly distributed.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
