Ingredients

½ cup butter softened
¾ cup light brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
¾ cup all purpose flour
½ cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup chocolate chips
⅓ cup walnuts chopped

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together, then add the egg and vanilla and whisk to combine.
To that same bowl, add the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt and stir to combine. Last, fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts by hand.
Use an ice cream scoop to scoop the cookie dough onto the baking sheet, leaving at least 2" in between each cookie. Bake the cookies for 10 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven, lift it 1 inch above your counter and drop the pan on the countertop a few times, which will help to flatten out the cookies a bit.
Leave the cookies on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Enjoy!
