Chocolate Chip Cookies

12 servings
INGREDIENTS
1 cup walnut or pecans
1 3/4 cups cake flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 ounces unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons warm water
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chocolate chips
METHOD
1 Preheat oven to 375°F on BAKE1 function.
2 Arrange the nuts on the baking tray and toast for 10 minutes, turning
occasionally. Cool and chop coarsely. Set aside.
3 Sift together the flour and salt. Set aside.
4 In an electric mixer, cream the butter until light and fluffy. On low
speed, gradually add the brown and white sugars. Increase speed
and beat until well combined.
5 In a cup or a small bowl, dissolve the baking soda in the warm water
and pour into the mixture. Add the egg and vanilla and mix until
blended. With the motor off, sprinkle the nuts, chocolate chips and,
last of all, the flour around the blade. On low to medium speed, mix
just until the flour is incorporated.
6 Turn out of the bowl, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill until firm. With
lightly floured hands, shape the dough into 12 equal balls, about 3
ounces each, and arrange on parchment-lined baking trays, 3 inches
apart. Flatten each ball slightly and bake 16 minutes or until golden
brown. Let the cookies cool slightly on the baking tray, then transfer
to a rack to finish cooling.
