Hi Everyone!
I am happy to pass on the recipe for the cookies I brought down to Camp Allen. When I heard about the altar and other folks bringing things to share, I knew I had to make something. Cooking is a big part of my life and I wanted to give a bit of that to everyone there. Adding love and good intentions while baking always makes these cookies vanish quickly when served!
Just let me know when and where & I'll bring along another batch...
Miss you all

Chocolate Chunk Cookies
1/2 lb unsalted butter at room temperature
1 C light brown sugar, packed
1/2 C granulated sugar
2 t pure vanilla extract
2 extra large eggs at room temperature
2 C all-purpose flour
1 t baking soda
1 t kosher salt
1 1/2 C chopped walnuts
1 1/4 pounds semi sweet chocolate chunks (chunks not chips!)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Cream the butter and two sugars until light and fluffy in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the vanilla, then the eggs,(sorry Chickenanda) one at a time, and mix well. Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt and add to the butter with the mixer on low speed, mixing only until combined.
Drop the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper using a rounded tablespoon. Dampen your hands and flatten the dough slightly. Bake for 15 minutes, the cookies should seem underdone. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
