Description

A delightful blend of flavors combining the nuttiness of almonds and the richness of chocolate in chewy cookies with crispy edges.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups bittersweet chocolate chunks
  • 1 cup chopped almonds

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line two large baking sheets.
  2. Cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a mixing bowl until well combined.
  3. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until fully integrated.
  4. Toss together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt in another bowl. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chunks and chopped almonds using a spatula.

For ideal cookie storage, keep in an airtight container at room temperature, or refrigerate for up to a week. They can also be frozen for about three months.
