Ingredients

NUTTY Chocolate Chip Cookies

2/3 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed

2/3 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, right from the fridge, or at room temperature

1/2 cup vegetable shortening

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon almond extract, optional

1 teaspoon vinegar, cider or white

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 large egg

2 cups King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour

2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

5 ounces light brown sugar, firmly packed

4 5/8 ounces granulated sugar

1 stick, 4 ounces unsalted butter, right from the fridge, or at room temperature

3 1/2 ounces vegetable shortening

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon almond extract, optional

1 teaspoon vinegar, cider or white

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 large egg

8 1/2 ounces King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour

12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips

1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease (or line with parchment) two baking sheets.

1) In a large bowl, combine the sugars, butter, shortening, salt, vanilla and almond extracts, vinegar, and baking soda, beating until smooth and creamy.

2) Beat in the egg, again beating till smooth. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl with a spatula to make sure everything is thoroughly combined.

3) Mix in the flour, then the chips, lastly the nuts.

4) Use a spoon (or a tablespoon cookie scoop) to scoop 1 1/4" balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2" between them on all sides; they'll spread.

5) Bake the cookies for 11 to 12 minutes, till their edges are chestnut brown and their tops are light golden brown, almost blonde. Remove them from the oven, and cool on the pan till they've set enough to move without breaking. Repeat with the remaining dough.
