  6. Fold in the chocolate chips and nuts until evenly dispersed.
  7. Using a cookie scoop, place dollops of dough onto the baking sheets, leaving space between each.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges turn golden brown.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

Notes

For best results, let the dough chill in the fridge for about half an hour before baking. Store cookies in an airtight container for up to a week, or freeze them for longer storage.
