Best Chewy Chocolate Walnut Cookies Recipes

HEALTHY WALNUT (OR CHOCOLATE) CRANBERRY OATMEAL CHEWY COOKIES

Steps:

• In a dry saucepan on medium, toast the walnuts (if using) and oats together until browned and fragrant, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, beat margarine(at room temp) and applesauce with brown sugar until light and fluffy (with electric beaters).
• add egg whites, brown rice syrup, and vanilla and beat until smooth, about a minute.
• In a smaller bowl, combine flours, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
• Mix into creamed mixture. Stir in oats, walnuts (or chocolate chips), and craisins.
• Chill dough for 30 minutes.
• Drop dough on parchment paper-covered cookie sheet (dont flatten tops).
• Bake at 330° F 12-15 minutes or until spread out and very lightly browned. They will be flat and the tops will have small bubble pockets, and though they may look soft and not done, they are! Allow cookies to cool slightly then place cookies on cooling rack. Use a very good spatchula or else they will be tricky to get off the pan without breaking!
• Cookies will be quite delicate and slightly sticky (especially when hot), so when you store them, be sure their edges arn't touching eachother and use wax paper to line between the layers. ENJOY!

CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP WALNUT COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Using an electric mixer, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, vanilla and salt and beat well.
• In a large bowl, combine baking powder, baking soda, flour, and oats. Stir to combine. Add this mixture to the butter mixture and stir until the dough comes together, then add the chocolate chips, coconut and walnuts and stir again until chips, coconut and walnuts are well integrated through the dough.
• Line 4 cookie sheets with parchment paper and scoop out the dough, 12 balls per cookie sheet. Each ball of dough should be about 4 teaspoons. Press the top of each ball gently with the back of a spoon.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned on top. Transfer to wire cooling racks. When cool, the cookies will be crunchy on the outside, and delightfully chewy on the inside.
