Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1.5 cups chocolate chips
• 1 cup chopped nuts (such as pecans or walnuts)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until creamy and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set and the centers still look slightly soft. Do not overbake.

Step 9

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Enjoy your Yum Yums Chocolate Nut Cookies with a cold glass of milk or share with friends and family!
