CHOCOLATE WALNUT COOKIES

This recipe is a classic and has always been well-received at the cookie swap. I measure out my dry ingredients on a piece of parchment paper and this makes it easier to add into the mixer. I also make large batches of the dough and keep it in the fridge during the holidays so I always have freshly baked cookies on hand when company drops in.

Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Dessert

Time 8h

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup rolled oats
1 cup white whole wheat flour
6 tablespoons unsalted butter (at room temperature)
1/2 cup dark brown sugar, (lightly packed)
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon espresso powder ((optional but delicious))
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon cider vinegar
1 large egg
1 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • In a blender or food processor, grind oats until fine. Transfer to a small bowl, then stir together with the whole wheat flour. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, beat together the butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla, espresso powder, cinnamon, and salt until smooth.
  • Beat in the baking soda, vinegar, and egg.
  • By hand, stir in the flour mixture, then the chocolate chips and walnuts, just until combined. For the best results, cover and chill in the refrigerator overnight.
  • Place rack in the center of the oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silpat mat. Drop the dough by tablespoonfuls onto the cookie sheets, then bake for 9 minutes, until the bottoms of the cookies are barely beginning to brown. The cookies may appear underdone.
  • Remove cookies from oven, let cool on the baking sheet for 3 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips. The better the chocolate chips, the better the cookies will be. Look for chips that are made with real cocoa butter and have a high percentage of cocoa solids (at least 55%).
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature. This will help the cookies develop a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before eating. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cookies to firm up.

Conclusion:

Chocolate chip walnut cookies are a classic for a reason. They're easy to make, delicious, and loved by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make chocolate chip walnut cookies that are perfect for any occasion.
