# How to Make It:

01 - Stir the instant coffee powder into warm water in a small dish. Let it cool down a bit.
02 - Using a large bowl, mix the softened unsalted butter with powdered sugar until it's fluffy and pale.
03 - Pour in the whisked egg and cooled coffee solution to your butter mixture. Stir until everything's well combined.
04 - In another bowl, combine plain flour, cornstarch, and cinnamon powder.
05 - Slowly add your dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until you've got a nice soft dough.
06 - Take tablespoon amounts of dough and roll them into small balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet with room between each one.
07 - Pop them in a 350°F (175°C) preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until they're slightly golden around the edges. Let them cool completely on a wire rack.
08 - Once cooled, dunk half of each cookie into melted dark chocolate, then quickly sprinkle with crushed pistachios. Put them on parchment paper until the chocolate hardens.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Want stronger coffee taste? Go for a bold instant coffee and don't leave them in the oven too long so they stay soft inside.
