Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Ground cardamom
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Walnuts, chopped and toasted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground cardamom, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the toasted, chopped walnuts using a spatula.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are lightly golden.
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.
Serve and enjoy with a warm beverage, or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
