Ingredients
  

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup unsalted butter, softened (2 sticks)

3/4 cup granulated sugar

3/4 cup packed brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 large eggs

2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Sea salt for sprinkling

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

      Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).

        Add Eggs: Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until fully incorporated.

          Combine: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.

            Fold in Chocolate Chips and Nuts: Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped walnuts (if using) with a spatula.

              Scoop Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, making sure to leave about 2 inches between each cookie.

                Sprinkle Sea Salt: Lightly sprinkle sea salt on top of each cookie dough ball for an extra flavor kick.

                  Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes or until the edges are golden brown, but the centers are still soft.

                    Cool: Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
