Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- 0.5 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure chewy cookies.
Fold in the chopped walnuts and chocolate chips using a spatula until evenly distributed.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly soft. Be careful not to overbake as they will firm up as they cool.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the Fudge Walnut Chewies with a glass of milk or a warm cup of coffee and enjoy!
