2cups all-purpose flour
1¼ teaspoons baking soda
1 tsp kosher salt
227g (1 cup) butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
*1/2 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups chopped bittersweet chocolate (chunks and shavings)
2 cups chopped walnuts
*when keto I put 2 tbsp or no added brown sugar
Step 1
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or Silpat. Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt.
Step 2
In a mixer fitted with a paddle, cream the butter and sugars until fluffy, 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, then the vanilla. Add the flour mixture all at once and blend until a dough forms. Fold in the chocolate and walnuts. Chill the dough for at least an hour.
Step 3
Preheat oven to 325. Roll 2½ -tablespoon lumps of dough into balls, then place on the baking sheet and flatten to ½ -inch-thick disks spaced 2 inches apart. Chill the dough between batches. Bake until the edges are golden brown, 14 to 16 minutes. Let cool slightly on the baking sheet, then transfer to a baking rack.
