Coffee House Cookies
Crispy on the outside and soft in the middle, these yummy chocolate chip cookies pair perfectly with a fresh cup of coffee.
Ingredients
- 1½ cups (375 mL) flour
- ½ tsp (2 mL) baking soda
- ¼ tsp (1 mL) salt
- ½ cup (125 mL) butter (1 stick), softened
- ¾ cup (175 mL) packed brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla extract
- 1 cup (250 mL) coarsely chopped walnuts or pecans, divided
- 1 cup (250 mL) semi-sweet chocolate chips like See's Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
- 1 cup (250 mL) assorted milk chocolates like See's Milk Chocolates, chopped and divided
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl. CREAM the butter and brown sugar in the Deluxe Stand Mixer for 2 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla; BEAT for 1 minute.
- Add the flour mixture, and MIX for 45 seconds, or until just combined. Add ⅔ cup (150 mL) of the nuts, ⅔ cup (150 mL) of the chocolate chips, and ⅔ cup (150 mL) of the chocolate candy to the dough. Set the mixer to CUSTOM speed 1 and mix until just incorporated, about 30 seconds.
- Scoop about 3 tbsp (45 mL) of dough per cookie onto an ungreased cookie sheet, spaced 3" (7.5 cm) apart. Repeat with the remaining dough on a second cookie sheet. Flatten the scoops slightly with the palm of your hand. Lightly press the remaining nuts, chocolate chips, and chocolate candy onto the tops of the cookies.
- Bake for 14–16 minutes, or until the cookies are almost set, rotating the cookie sheets halfway through. Cool for 5 minutes on the cookie sheet, then remove from the pans to cool completely.
