Ingredients

  • 1 c COLD butter cut into ½ inch cubes
  • 1 c brown sugar
  • ½ c sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1½ c cake flour
  • 1½ c all purpose flour
  • 1 t cornstarch
  • ¾ t baking soda
  • ¾ t salt
  • 2 c semi sweet or dark chocolate chips
  • 2 c chopped walnuts*

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 410F. Yes - 410 degrees F!
  • Cream COLD butter and sugars in a large bowl or stand mixer until fluffy, around 4 minutes.
  • Add in eggs, mixing well after each one.
  • Add in flours, cornstarch, baking soda and salt and mix until just combined.
  • Stir in chocolate chips and chopped up walnuts.
  • On a large sheet pan lightly greased or lined with parchment paper, scoop into roughly 1.5 inch balls drop onto sheet. On an extra large sheet pan, I can usually fit 12.
  • Bake until golden brown, roughly 6-8 minutes.
  • Let rest for about 10 minutes in order for them to set.

Notes

If you need to make these cookies school friendly (or nut allergy friendly) keep out the walnuts. They taste great, but they certainly don’t look as appealing. The added texture of the nuts is what makes them look so good!
