Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup salted butter (12 tablespoons, 172 grams)
  • 1 cup brown sugar (210 grams)
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar (53 grams)
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • cup all-purpose flour (188 grams)
  • ½ cup dark cocoa powder (Dutch processed, 54 grams)
  • teaspoon baking powder (4.6 grams)
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (181 grams)
  • 1 cup walnuts (roughly chopped, 96 grams)

Instructions
 

  • Melt the butter in a large microwave-safe bowl. Alternatively, melt the butter in a small saucepan on the stove top and transfer it to a mixing bowl.
  • Stir in the brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla, egg, and egg yolk.
  • Add in the flour, dark cocoa powder, and baking powder. Stir until combined.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips and walnuts until they are evenly distributed. If desired, set aside a handful of the nuts and chocolate chips to add to the tops of the unbaked cookies.
  • Cover and chill the dough for at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • While the oven is preheating, roll a generous tablespoon of dough into a ball and place on the cookie sheet or use a cookie scoop to portion out the dough. Allow 2 inches of space between each cookie dough ball.
  • If desired, add pieces of the reserved chocolate and walnuts to the tops of the unbaked cookies.
  • Bake the cookies for about 11-13 minutes, until the center starts to look matte and the edges are firm. Remove the pan from the oven and let the cookies rest on the pan for 3 additional minutes.
  • If desired, use a wide rimmed drinking glass or round cookie cutter to shape the cookie into a perfect circle by swirling the glass around the perimeter of the baked cookie several times.
  • Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack and allow them to cool completely. Stor sealed in an airtight container.
