2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature |
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar |
1/2 cup granulated sugar |
3 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 large eggs |
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips |
2 cups chopped walnuts (optional) |

1. Evenly space 2 racks in oven.
2. Heat oven to 350ยบ.
3. Mix flour and baking soda.
4. Beat butter about 1 minute until fluffy.
5. Add sugars, vanilla and salt.
6. Beat until thick and pale, 1 to 2 minutes.
7. Beat in eggs until just blended.
8. With spoon, stir in flour mixture, then chocolate and nuts.
9. Drop about 2 tablespoons dough per cookie on ungreased cookie sheets, placing 6 on each sheet.
10. Bake 10 to 12 minutes (two sheets at a time) until golden brown around edges and only lightly colored on top.
11. Switch sheets halfway through baking so they are cooked evenly.
