Ingredients:
These are some rocking chocolate chip cookies, and can easily be made by anyone. They don't seem like anything special, but I get rants and raves every time I make them, so here goes.
First off, the pictures I took involved me making a double batch, so the amounts written will not match the amounts shown. Also, I'm using a standing mixer, but you can use a hand mixer, or a whole lot of elbow grease.
Here's what you'll need:
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1/3 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 2/3 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
14 ounces semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped, or chips
1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
Powdered sugar
Get your ingredients together. In one large bowl, mix your flour, salt, ginger, cinnamon and baking soda. In another large mixing bowl, or the bowl to your standing mixer, add your brown sugar, sugar and butter. If you don't let your butter get to room temperature naturally, you can always microwave it, making sure not to burn it at all. It shouldn't be so melty that it's translucent, but still yellow.
