LEVAIN BAKERY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

These cookies are a copycat of the famous Levain Bakery Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookies. The tiny bakery in New York City almost always has a line of New Yorkers and tourists waiting to buy their monstrous cookies. I think my version tastes very similar to the real thing, allowing you to recreate the famed New York City cookies in your own home.

After several dozen batches of cookies and having to make a grocery run to restock on butter, walnuts and chocolate chips, I finally have a cookie recipe to share that tastes like the ones I ate at Levain Bakery.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
• ¾ cup lightly packed light brown sugar
• ½ cup granulated white sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup cake flour
• 1¾ cup all purpose flour
• 1 tsp cornstarch
• 1 tsp baking soda
• ½ tsp table salt
• 2 cups roughly chopped walnuts
• 2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 410°F. Line two baking sheets with silicone baking mats.
2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, add butter and sugars. Cream until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Since you are dealing with cold butter, start on low speed for about 30 seconds. Switch to medium speed for another 30 seconds and then high speed for 1 minute.
