Levain Bakery's Double Chocolate Chip with nuts Cookie

My dear friend DG encouraged me to participate in this week's giveaway.  Unfortunately, I missed Phoon Huat's 15% discount promotion on Callebaut Chocolate.  

Thankfully, by the time I made my way to Phoon Huat, there were 3 packets of chocolate left so I was able to join in the fun.

Actually, I have wanted to attempt this Levain Bakery's Cookie during the covid phrase 1 as it was then a very popular recipe but as usual, this procrastinating queen always has other things to do.  

So now let's take a bite of the Levain Bakery's Double Chocolate Chip with nuts Cookie (my way) that was so raved about.

I also prepared 2 pieces with marshmallow as my kids are not big fan of nuts.

What you need:

yield 6 pcs (4 with nuts and 2 with marshmallow)

270g plain flour

50g cocoa powder

100g brown sugar

100g castor sugar

200g butter, unsalted (soften)

1 tsp salt

1 tsp vanilla extract

2g baking soda

3g baking powder

110g eggs

250g semi-sweet chocolate chips

50g macadamia nuts, toasted and chopped

50g hazelnuts, toasted and chopped

top off with more nuts an chocolate chips

Method:

Sift the flour, cocoa powder with baking soda and baking powder.  Set aside.

Beat butter until soft.

Add in brown sugar and castor sugar and whisk until light.

Whisk in egg little by little, incorporating well.

Whisk in salt and vanilla.

Mix in the flour mixture until fully incorporated.

Mix in the nut and chocolate chip until well combined.  (I removed some dough before adding in the nuts)

Chill dough for 30 mins.

Using an ice cream scoop, scoop 2 scoops of dough onto lined baking tray (approx 180g).  With gloves, try to round it into a ball.

Top off with more nuts and chocolate chips.

Chill for 10 mins before baking.

Bake for 15 mins at 190 deg.

Enjoy!
