Chocolate Chip & Walnut Cookies


Chocolate chip chunks and crunchy walnuts in each bite.. these american cookies are a delicious treat to your sweet cravings with milk, ice cream, tea or coffee. Or just enjoy them as they are.

Chocolate chip cookies.. yum! Freshly baked and hot from the oven.. can it be better?? Feel the lovely smell spreading throughout the home. It is amazing. And there are few things that can compare with a glass of cold milk and chocolate cookies.

This chocolate chip & walnut cookies recipe is from my favorite blog, Passion4baking and I just had to try these out when she posted them up. These cookies have their origin from America and Manuela got the recipe from her friend's mother in 1987. Hmm, a coincidence.. I was born the same year.



The cookies turned out really good and delicious with yummy chocolate chunks and walnuts in each bite. You can have these alone, with coffee or milk, and they make good company to some vanilla ice cream. I topped mine cookie with some caramel sauce and chocolate topping to make it even more chocolicious!
