Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 1 Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.75 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (e.g., pecans or walnuts)
- 0.5 cup Mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy using a hand or stand mixer.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, beating until well-combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chopped nuts and mini chocolate chips (if using) with a spatula.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion dough into balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each dough ball slightly with your fingers or the back of a spoon to create a disc shape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are golden around the edges.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your crisp and crunchy cookies with your favorite beverage!
