Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookies
These Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookies are the Cookie of the Year, in my book. They are chewy and melty and come with delicious, warm, crunchy walnuts, which is just what I need to make my day just as dreamy as they taste.
Ingredients
- 1 cup 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated white sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line your baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Crack in the eggs and pour in the vanilla extract, then beat until the mixture is creamy and well-blended.
- Sift together the baking soda, salt, and all-purpose flour in a separate bowl. Gradually mix these dry ingredients into your creamy butter mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped walnuts into the dough until they are evenly distributed.
- Scoop the dough with a rounded tablespoon and drop onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing the dough about 2-3 inches apart to allow for spreading.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-baking.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
