I created this coffee cookies recipe because I wanted an easy-to-make cookie that folks can't resist. These tempting treats have a hint of coffee flavor and aren't overly sweet.

Ingredients

1 cup sugar
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup instant coffee granules
2 tablespoons hot water
2 large eggs, room temperature
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
Additional sugar

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400°. In a bowl, combine sugar and oil. Dissolve coffee in water; add to sugar mixture and mix well. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; gradually add to the sugar mixture.
2. Roll into 3/4-in. balls, then roll in additional sugar. Place 2 in. apart on lightly greased baking sheets; flatten with a fork. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until edges are firm. Remove to wire racks to cool.
