Here is a good ol’ chocolate chip cookie recipe. 

I like to add toasted walnuts to some of the batter, but that is optional.

Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookies

• 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons whole-wheat pastry flour (or all-purpose flour)
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 stick unsalted butter
• ½ teaspoon vanilla
• ½ cup brown sugar
• 1/3 cup white sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 cup chocolate chips
• ½ cup toasted walnuts, chopped (I used my cinnamon roasted walnuts)

Directions

- Whisk together flour, salt, and baking soda in a medium bowl

- Blend in a mixture the butter and sugars.  Add in the egg and vanilla.

- Gradually add the flour into the butter mixture until combined. Add in the chocolate chips and the walnuts. 

- Bake at 375 degrees for about 9 minutes, until just turning golden.  let cool.
