• In a large bowl, cream butter, shortening and sugars until light and fluffy. Dissolve coffee in water; add to creamed mixture with egg and melted chocolate until blended. Combine the flour, cinnamon and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well (dough will be sticky). Shape into two 6-1/2-in. rolls; wrap each in plastic. Refrigerate for 4 hours or until firm. , Unwrap and cut into 1/4-in. slices. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until firm. Remove to wire racks to cool completely., In a microwave, melt chocolate chips and shortening; stir until smooth. Dip each cookie halfway in chocolate; allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper; let stand until set.

Steps:

• To toast walnuts, sprinkle in ungreased heavy skillet. Cook over medium heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently until nuts begin to brown, then stirring constantly until nuts are light brown. Cool.
• Butter 15x10-inch pan. In heavy 3 1/2-quart saucepan, melt 1 1/4 cups butter over medium heat. Stir in granulated sugar, brown sugar, molasses, coffee powder, cinnamon, salt and water. Cook, stirring constantly, to 290°F on candy thermometer or until small amount of mixture dropped into cup of very cold water separates into threads that are hard but pliable.
• Remove from heat; stir in toasted walnuts. Quickly pour mixture into pan and spread in even layer. Immediately sprinkle chocolate and vanilla chips over top; let stand 5 minutes. Swirl melted chips using offset spatula.
• Cover; refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour. Break toffee into pieces. Store tightly covered in refrigerator up to 7 days. Serve cold or room temperature.

Steps:

• Combine 1 1/4 cups of the walnuts, the flour, baking powder, and salt in a food processor.
• Pulse the machine repeatedly until the nuts are chopped into very fine pieces.
• Set aside.
• Finely chop the remaining nuts by hand and set them aside in a small bowl.
• Using an electric mixer, cream the butter until smooth, gradually adding the sugar. Beat in the egg, then stir in the vanilla and coffee.
• Add the dry mixture to the creamed ingredients, stirring the dough with a wooden spoon until evenly combined.
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• Adjust one oven rack so it is in the center position.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Get out 1 or 2 large baking sheets and butter them lightly or line with parchment.
• Pinch off pieces of dough and roll into balls 1 1/4-inches in diameter.
• Roll in the finely chopped nuts and place on the cookie sheet/s, leaving a little room between them.
• Bake -- one sheet at a time -- for 16 to 18 minutes, until firm to the touch.
• Cool briefly on the sheet, then transfer to a cooling rack to finish cooling. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner or parchment paper.
• With an electric mixer or by hand, cream together the butter, sugar and light brown sugar. Beat in the corn syrup and vinegar, then the egg and vanilla; mixture may appear slightly lumpy. Add salt, baking soda and flour, and mix until smooth. Add cappuccino chips and walnuts, and fold in well.
• Using a cookie scoop or a spoon, scoop up 2 tablespoons of dough at a time, and shape into mounds about 2 inches apart on baking sheet. (Dough will probably have to be baked in 2 batches.) Bake each batch, turning sheet halfway through cooking. For chewy cookies, bake till lightly bronzed but still soft at center, about 10 minutes; for crisper cookies, bake 2 minutes longer.
• Cool cookies on baking sheet 3 to 5 minutes before transferring carefully to a wire rack to finish cooling. Store in an airtight container.
