Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 227 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Brown sugar (light or dark)
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
- 300 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 150 grams Chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chopped walnuts evenly throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 5 cm (2 inches) apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly underbaked (they will set as they cool).
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy the sweet, nutty goodness of these Brown Sugar Walnut Cookies!
