Craving a rich, decadent cookie? These Chocolate Walnut Cookies are the perfect treat. With their chewy texture, gooey chocolate chips, and crunchy walnuts, they're sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
Ingredients:
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the dry ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Cream the butter and sugars: In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy.
- Add the wet ingredients: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Combine the dry and wet ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
- Add the chocolate chips and walnuts: Stir in the chocolate chips and chopped walnuts.
- Bake the cookies: Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
- Bake until golden brown: Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown but the centers are still soft.
- Cool and enjoy: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
Tips:
- For a chewier cookie, underbake slightly.
- If you prefer a crunchier cookie, bake for a few extra minutes.
- To make these cookies nut-free, omit the walnuts.
