🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: cake flour

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Cream together unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.

Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts until evenly distributed.

Scoop large balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart.

Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, about 10-12 minutes.

Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Allow cookies to cool completely before serving.
