I have struggled with chocolate chip cookie recipes over the years, I have never found one that has made me really happy...until now!! These cookies are amazing. They are a copycat recipe from the Levain bakery in New York City. If you have not heard about it, it is famous for the chocolate chip cookies, they have been on the Food Network. I like them because they don't flatten out. It is a very different recipe than a traditional cookie recipe, it is very specific about the temperature of the ingredients. But trust me, it is GOOD. The recipe calls for nuts and I didn't put them in because I didn't have them, but they don't need them
Chocolate Chip Cookies
2 sticks unsalted butter, cool but slightly softened
2 cups light brown sugar
2 eggs, straight from the fridge
2 3/4 cups AP flour
1 teaspoon table salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup walnuts
Preheat oven to 375
In bowl of electric mixer fitted with paddle, mix together butter and sugar on low speed until blended. Add eggs, one at a time, and beat on low speed until incorporated.
Add flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder and mix until just combined. Gently fold in chocolate chips and nuts.
Scoop cookie dough onto parchment lined baking sheet 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake 13-15 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the tops are just lightly browned. (For smaller cookies, of course you'll need to watch them because they'll bake much faster.) Cool completely on wire racks. Store airtight until you eat them all!
