This great recipe is very reminiscent of the traditional Italian Tiramisu dessert. What a great way to introduce a new cookie.

Method

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a medium mixing bowl with a wooden spoon, mix together flour, baking soda and salt then set aside. In a separate large bowl, with an electric mixer on medium speed, cream together butter and granulated sugar for 5 minutes or until fluffy. Add egg, vanilla extract, almond extract and milk. Continue to mix for 3 minutes or until well incorporated. Add flour mixture to butter mixture, and continue to mix for 2 minutes or until well combined. Line an 11 X 17 nonstick cookie sheet with parchment paper. Drop dough by rounded teaspoonful, 3 inches apart, onto prepared cookie sheets. Bake 10 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Immediately transfer to wire racks and cool completely. Meanwhile, in a small mixing bowl, combine espresso granules and water. Stir until espresso is dissolved then set aside to cool. In a 4 quart mixing bowl, with an electric mixer on medium speed, beat cream cheese for 2 minutes or until smooth and creamy. Add powdered sugar and cooled espresso, continuing to beat 2 minutes or until well blended. Gently fold in whipped topping. To assemble cookies, evenly spread cream cheese mixture on half of cookies. Top cream cheese mixture with another cookie, creating a sandwich. Place melted chocolate chips in a resealable bag, snip off a corner and drizzle over cookies. Allow chocolate to set and then serve.
