Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup (softened) Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Brown sugar (packed)
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 cups Semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix 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. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped walnuts (if using) with a spatula until evenly distributed in the dough.
Using a large cookie scoop or 1/4 cup measuring tool, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 3 inches between each cookie to allow for spreading.
Bake one sheet at a time on the center rack for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still appear slightly underbaked.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your delicious, oversized cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
