The Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie

No need to look any further. You have just found the best Chocolate Chip Cookie! Loaded with chocolate and chopped walnuts, this big batch will have your cookie monsters coming back for more!

Ingredients:

3 1/2 cups flour

1 tbsp cornstarch

1 1/2 tsps baking powder

1 1/4 tsps baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1 1/4 cups butter, at room temperature

1 1/3 cups brown sugar

1 cup sugar

2 tsps vanilla

2 eggs

1 egg white

1 cup chocolate chips

1 cup swirl (white and chocolate) chips

1 cup chopped walnuts

Coarse sea salt for topping (optional)

Combine the dry ingredients and set aside.

Next, cream the butter and sugars together, then add the vanilla, eggs and egg white. Beat until frothy. Add the dry ingredients in three additions just until combined and fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts.

Take heaping tablespoons of cookie dough and roll into balls. If using the coarse salt (it really does add a nice sweet and saltiness to the cookies) lightly dip the top of the ball in the salt then place the ball on a lined cookie sheet.

Very gently press the top down, no need to squish it flat. You can also add more chopped walnuts or chocolate chips to the top if you like.

Bake at 360°F for 12-14 minutes.

This batch makes 53 cookies.
