Mascarpone frosting

  1. Beat heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form then set aside.

  3. Fold in heavy whipping cream until combined. 
  4. Pipe frosting onto cookies then sprinkle with cocoa powder. 

Notes

    • Don’t over bake cookies. You’ll want to bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown but the middle will look slightly underdone.

    • Adjust the coffee in the frosting. You can add more or less coffee depending on how you like it. The recipe will have a hint of coffee in the frosting. If you want a stronger coffee flavor, add more.

    • Make sure to measure the flour correctly. You’ll want to use a spoon to spoon the flour into the measuring cup and the leveling it with a knife. Adding to much or too little flour will change the texture of the cookies.
