Chocolate Chip-Nuts Cookies

Already I have posted a recipe for Chocolate Chip cookies here and this one is a more crispier version and also with more nuts included:)

Ingredients:

• Whole Wheat flour - 2 cups

  

  So Crispy!!!

• Egg - 1 no (at room temperature)
• Butter - 3/4 cup (Cold butter sticks)
• Light Brown Sugar - 3/4 cup
• Granulated White Sugar - 1/2 cup
• Walnuts, finely chopped - 1/2 cup
• Almonds, finely chopped - 1/2 cup
• Semi sweet mini Chocolate chips - 1/2 cup (can increase as per likeness)
• Baking soda - 1 tsp
• Salt - 1/2 tsp
• Vanilla extract - 1 tsp
• Cinnamon powder - 1/2 tsp

Method:

1. Pre-heat oven to 350F
2. In a bowl, add the wheat flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon powder; mix well and keep it aside
   
3. Finely chop the nuts and keep them ready
   
4. Mix in the chocolate chips with the chopped nuts
   
   
   
   
5. In a wide bowl take both the sugars and cold butter cubes; beat well(If using electric beater, we can beat in high speed) for 4-5 mins until it becomes creamy
   
   
   
   
6. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, beat well for another 1-2 mins until they get combined well
   
   
   
   
7. Now add the flour mix into the wet mixture and mix well until it gets mixed
   
8. Then gently fold in the chocolate chip-nut mixture, mix gently for uniform distribution
   
   
   
   
   
   
9. Make small uniform balls (I used 1 tbsp & 1/2 tbsp spoons as scoops to get uniform size), flatten it slightly and place it in cookie tray
   
   
   
   
10. Ensure it is not crowded and leave at least 3/4-1 inch  space between the cookies since it may spread while baking
    
11. We can also place them without flattening if we want a bit thicker cookie. Both of them were very crispy:
    
12. Keep the tray in the pre heated oven and allow it to bake for 10-11 mins
13. After 10 mins, remove the tray and allow it to cool for 5 mins before taking out into cooling rack

14. While taking out, the cookies will be little soft and upon cooling it becomes crisp
    
15. Then store it in air tight container
