Ingredients:

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 0.75 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.75 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cups Nestle Toll House Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and ensure your racks are in the center position.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the 1 cup softened butter, 0.75 cup granulated sugar, 0.75 cup packed brown sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Note: Keep beating until the mixture looks like a pale, thick paste without any gritty sugar feel.
  3. Add the 2 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Note: If your eggs are cold, soak them in warm water for 5 minutes first to keep the butter from seizing.
  4. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the 2.25 cups all purpose flour, 1 tsp baking soda, and 1 tsp salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the butter mixture using the low speed on your mixer. Stop as soon as the white streaks disappear to keep the cookies tender.
  6. Fold in the 2 cups Nestle Toll House Semi Sweet Chocolate Morsels and 1 cup chopped walnuts by hand with a sturdy spatula.
  7. Drop the dough by rounded tablespoons onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between them.
  8. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly set.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes. Note: This carryover cooking time is essential for the structure to finish setting.
  10. Move the cookies to wire racks to cool completely, which keeps the bottoms from getting soggy.
