Ingredients
- 2.25 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 Large eggs
- 2 cups Semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Chopped walnuts (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease them.
Step 2
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the sugar mixture, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.
Step 6
Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts (if using) with a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, 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 but the centers still look slightly soft.
Step 9
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve and enjoy your Mrs. Clinton’s Chocolate Chip Cookies with a cold glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage!
