Walnut Chewy Chocolate Chips Cookies

Yes, I mean it and I swear! It's really chewy!

I love the double-chocolcate-chips chewy cookies from Subway and I always wanted to bake this kind of cookies one day, at least I don't have to pay so much for a piece of cookie.

So, I decided to try it out. And yes, for the 1st time I baked chewy cookies.

The outcome is delicious-yummy! BUT... take a look of the pictures that I've taken with my mobile phone :P Not sure if you dare to try it out or not.



The SIZE, and this is the 1st piece of cookie that I formed in the tray :P
I just dropped a spoonful of cookies dough, imagine the amount of rice that you will put in your mouth, not too big, juUuuust---niceeee...And the end result is:



But I guarantee you, you will not regret trying to bake this cookies IF AND ONLY IF you are a fan of chewy cookies!

Baked on 24 Jul 2009.


** Recipe posted upon request from Blessed Homemaker, thanks for visiting:
** Recipe adapted from allrecipes ^.^


Ingredients

* 2C all-purpose flour
* 1/2t baking soda
* 1/2t salt
* 3/4C unsalted butter, melted
* 1C packed brown sugar **
* 1/2C white sugar **
* 1T vanilla extract
* 1 egg
* 1 egg yolk
* 1 3/4C semisweet chocolate chips
* 1/2C or 3/4C walnut, chopped


Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line with parchment paper.

2. Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.

3. In a medium bowl, cream together the melted butter, brown sugar and white sugar until well blended. Beat in the vanilla, egg, and egg yolk until light and creamy. Mix in the sifted ingredients until just blended. Stir in the chocolate chips & chopped walnuts by hand using a wooden spoon. Put in the fridge for 1-2hours. Drop cookie dough spoonful at a time onto the prepared cookie sheets. Cookies should be about 3 inches apart cause it will spread. (That's how I got palm-size cookies)

4. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the edges are lightly toasted. Cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.***

** I reduced the brown sugar to 3/4C and white sugar to 1/3C cause we got chocolate chips already, it would be too sweet for me. You may adjust accordingly ^.^


*** Once it's golden brown, can take out from the oven le, I found that you will get crispy cookies instead of chewy if overcook ^.^ It will be soft in the middle, but once cool down, you'll love its chewiness!

  4. Guess what? I was flipping through my old recipes and found this exact recipe that I got from a food forum a few years back! Made it once but think I have over-baked and ended up with crispy cookies instead. Am going to give this recipe a try again.

  6. If you realised, I always quote my source as I feel there's a need to credit the originator.

    Anyway, I made these this morning and baked them at 15 mins and I get a chewy cookie :)
