That said, I don't drink coffee or espresso either and neither do some of my friends, but we all love these cookies. So perhaps one day you might want to try the recipe as is. It's quite lovely.

Is there something I can use to substitute? Thank you. I don’t drink espresso and I would like to give this to kids and neighbors who don’t drink coffee. Is there something I can use to substitute?

I make a batch every Christmas, and they're very handy to have in the freezer for slicing off a bit at a time. :-) These look very similar to a refrigerator shortbread cookie that my mom used to make (sans the espresso powder and confectioners sugar).
