    These cookies look amazing, Rachelle…and you used porter in there! I love it! We are totally getting into porter mood up here. (It snowed yesterday, and that usually means the arrival of porter season.) Now I just need a batch of these cookies to go along with my pint! 🙂

      Hi Emily! It’s not you, it’s me. I accidentally left it out of the ingredient list. The recipe is updated to include 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda. Thanks for pointing it out! Cheers!

    Hi! I work for a brewery that makes a coffee stout, and I just made this “dough” with it for a cookie swap. It’s been chilling for 4 hours now is still more of a batter. Is there something I missed, should I add more flour to it? BTW- the batter is delicious 🙂

      Hi Sharon! I’m glad the batter is delicious! It’s definitely more of a brownie type batter than cookie so you should be fine. Chilling it just firmed it up a bit to make it easier to scoop. I’d go with what you’ve got because it sounds perfect! P.S. I’d love to hear all about the brewery your husband works for!

        Good Morning! I hard chilled the dough in the freezer for just a bit to set it a little more, I believe my issue may have been that I doubled the recipe 🙂 The cookies came out GREAT!! I work for the Eddyline Brewery in Buena Vista Colorado, and I used our 14er Java Stout to make the cookies, I also made an icing from butter, confectioners sugar and more Java Stout to really make the beer flavor POP! They are delicious, I can’t keep the boyfriend out of the cookie jar!!! Thanks for sharing this recipe, Beer Girl!!

          Hi Sharon! I’m so glad it worked for you! Twice as much is always better! Thanks so much for your kind comments. If I ever make it out to Colorado, I’m definitely going to check out Eddyline Brewery. It looks like you may have be so awesome to include a picture of your cookies, but it isn’t showing up. 🙁 I would absolutely love to see your finished product and that java stout icing sounds like something I could just eat with a spoon! 🙂 Cheers!
