Scraping The Sides of The
Bowl |
Half way through this step you will want to scrape the sides of the
bowl. This will prevent any granules of sugar from not being mixed in. |
|

Adding Eggs |
2nd Step: Add Eggs
Now once
you are finished mixing these first ingredients and your mixture looks
as fluffy as the picture to the left, add the eggs and vanilla. Mix
these in until well blended. |
|

Mixing The Dry Ingredients |
3rd Step: Mixing Dry Ingredients
Combine
in separate bowl:
4 Cups Flour
2 teaspoons Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Salt
Now mix these together well. |
|

Mix In Dry Ingredients |
Now slowly add the
dry ingredients
to your fluffy concoction in the mixer while mixing on low speed. |
|

Cookie
Dough |
Once you
have mixed your dry ingredients in your cookie dough it should look like
this and be a moist texture. |

Adding In
The Goodies |
4th Step: Adding In The Goodies
Now it is time
to add in:
2 Cups Semisweet Chocolate Chips
1 Cup Roasted Walnuts that have been chopped
*If you
are not using a KitchenAid mixer hand stir these goodies in.
Hint: Freezing
your Chocolate Chips before mixing them into the dough will prevent them
from smashing and turning your cookie dough brown. |

|

Shaping
The Chocolate Chip Cookies |
5th Step: Shaping the Chocolate Chip
Cookies
When
shaping your cookies it helps to use a ice-cream scooper. |
|

Putting
The Chocolate Chip Cookies On Pan |
We suggest that you place a sheet of baking parchment on the pan, and
putting the cookie dough on top of the parchment paper.
If you don't have parchment paper, just place the cookie dough directly
on the baking pan. Do not grease the baking pan. |
|

Baked
Chocolate Chip Cookies |
6th Step: Baking Chocolate Chip Cookies
You will
want to bake your cookies for 13-15 minutes on an ungreased cookie sheet
at 350 degrees. |
|

Cooling
Cookies |
After
about 5 minutes of cooling on the cookie sheet remove them and place
them on a cooling rack until they are no longer warm. |
