Ingredients

• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 units large eggs
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons whiskey
• 1.5 cups dark chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.

Step 5

Mix in the vanilla extract and whiskey until combined.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed or by hand, until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 7

Fold in the dark chocolate chips and walnuts (if using).

Step 8

Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly underbaked.

Step 10

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Serve and enjoy your whiskey-infused cookies! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
