Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  3. Crack 2 large eggs into the bowl along with 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of espresso powder. Mix thoroughly until combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon of baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon of salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
  6. Fold in 2 cups of chocolate chips and 1 cup of walnuts (if using) until evenly distributed.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes until edges are set but centers remain soft. Allow to cool on sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
