# Guide to Cooking:
01 -
Set your oven to 200°C (400°F) and let it warm up.
02 -
Toss the soft butter chunks in a bowl and start beating slowly. Dump in both sugars and mix at medium speed till smooth and creamy, for about a minute.
03 -
Drop the eggs into your butter-sugar mix and beat for around 30 seconds at medium speed, just till they blend in.
04 -
Stop the mixer. Throw in homemade cake flour, plain flour, powder for baking, soda for baking, and sea salt. Turn mixer to low till everything's mixed together.
05 -
Use a rubber spatula to gently fold the walnuts and chocolate pieces into your batter until they're spread out evenly.
06 -
Split your dough into 8 equal balls, about 170g each. Just roughly shape them with your hands without pressing them flat.
07 -
Put 4 dough balls on each baking tray and stick them in the oven for 11 minutes. They should look a bit golden on top and bottom. Don't leave them in too long!
08 -
Let your cookies sit for 15 minutes to cool down before you dig in.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Make your own cake flour by mixing 120g plain flour with 2 tablespoons cornstarch, then sift it 3-4 times till it's super light.
