Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks), softened unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup, packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup, chopped walnuts
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped walnuts using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Step 7
Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look just set. The cookies will continue to bake slightly on the baking sheet as they cool.
Step 9
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve the cookies warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
