Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 3/4 cup firmly packed light-brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda dissolved into 1 teaspoon hot water
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon table salt
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy and light, about 1-2 minutes using a stand mixer or electric mixer.
    1 cup unsalted butter, 3/4 cup firmly packed light-brown sugar, 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • Add the eggs, vanilla, and baking soda dissolved in water. Mix again, scraping the bottom and sides of the bowl.
    2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • Add flour and salt, mixing until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips and walnuts.
    2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon table salt, 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips, 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • Drop tablespoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet using a small cookie scoop.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown around the edges. Cool on wire racks.

Notes

  • Storage: Keep cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for 5 days.
  • Freezing cookies: Baked cookies can be cooled, then frozen and stored in a freezer-safe airtight container for up to 3 months.
  • Freezing dough: This dough freezes well. You can freeze an entire batch for future use, or scoop the dough into balls and flash freeze them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for 1-2 hours before transferring to a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months. Bake like normal, just adding an additional minute or two to your baking time.
