Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined.
Fold in the mini chocolate chips and chopped walnuts (if using).
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden. Avoid overbaking for soft cookies.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container for up to one week or freeze for longer storage.
