The ratio of chocolate chips and walnuts to dough is high, so these Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookies cookies are stuffed with anti-oxidants from the dark chocolate and omega-3s from the walnuts. You’ll be pleasantly surprised by their light and crunchy texture. Try buying good quality block chocolate if you can, but semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate chips will work as well.
Preparation
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Beat the sugar and butter until light and creamy. Stir in the egg and vanilla.
3. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda and salt. Mix into the wet ingredients until just well blended. Stir in the chopped nuts and chocolate chips.
4. Use a tablespoon to drop 20 heaping spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten slightly and sprinkle with flaky salt if using. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Cool slightly then transfer to a wire rack.
