Walnut-Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 stick of unsalted butter (softened)
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 2/3 cup ground flax seed
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp. baking soda
- ¼ tsp. kosher salt
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 2/3 cup walnuts (coarsely chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and the brown sugar. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. Set the bowl aside for a moment.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flax seed, flour, baking soda and salt. Add this mixture of dry ingredients to the bowl containing the butter mixture and combine thoroughly. Stir in the chocolate chips and walnuts.
- Shape the dough into 1 inch balls and place on an ungreased nonstick cookie sheet, arranging them about 2 inches apart. Or simply place heaped teaspoonfuls of the dough on the sheet. Bake until golden and cooked through, 7-9 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool and set for 5 minutes. Then with a spatula, transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
