Ingredients:
2 (12 ounce) bottles guinness stout
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened or 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup shortening or 8 tablespoons shortening
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups white chocolate chunks
1 cup semisweet chocolate chunk
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Reduce beer with 1/2 cup brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat until syrupy and measures about 1/3 cup, 30–45 minutes. Remove syrup from heat; set aside to cool slightly.
3. Whisk together flour, cocoa, espresso powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
4. Cream butter, shortening, granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup brown sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add beer syrup, eggs, and vanilla; mix to combine.
5. Stir dry ingredients into creamed mixture until flour is incorporated. Fold in white and semisweet chocolate chunks until distributed.
6. Drop dough (about 2 Tbsp.) onto baking sheets. Bake cookies until edges are set, 12–14 minutes. Let cookies cool a couple of minutes on baking sheets, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
