Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375°. Cream butter and sugars until fully combined and smooth, then mix in eggs and vanilla, beating until batter is glossy.
In a separate bowl, mix flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Gradually stir into butter mixture, then fold in chocolate chips and walnuts.
Form into loose, baseball-sized mounds and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 16 to 18 minutes, or until the center has set (as in, it’s not jiggly) but has not fully cooked. The edges should be lightly golden.
