WRITTEN RECIPE Ingredients: 100g roasted, skinned walnuts 400g milk chocolate chips 230g cold butter 160g soft light brown sugar 160g caster sugar 200g self-raising flour 300g all-purpose flour 1/4tsp salt 1/4tsp baking soda 2tsp baking powder 2 beaten eggs Mix flours, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a bowl. Start by adding the cold butter to the bowl of a standmixer, giving it a quick pulse with the paddle to loosen the butter. Add the sugars and briefly stir until just combined. Add the chocolate chips and walnuts and stir until just combined. Add the dry ingredients and stir until a breadcrumb like consistency. Add the beaten eggs and stir until just combined. Form into rough balls weighing 125g each, and freeze for at least 90 min. Preheat the oven to 185c/365f with a parchment lined baking sheet inside. Once the oven has come up to temperature, put the frozen dough balls at least 2 inches apart on the preheated baking sheet. Bake for 17 min. *EDIT TO ADD* If you don't have self-raising flour use these measurements instead 500g all purpose flour 3/4tsp salt 1/4 tsp baking soda 1 tbd baking powder

Every Ramadan, I bake these cookies and treat myself with one with a good cup of tea. It has become a tradition, and the flavours give me nostalgia now hehe.

I adore Sally! She’s so easy breezy in the way she teaches, if that makes sense. Quick and to the point without rushing. 💜

Never been to NYC but these cookies are from far the best I’ve made! They are gooey in inside and crispy outside; almost like a sablé. It’s pure joy. Thank you for your beautiful recipe !

Hey y’all. For all those asking, the ingredients are now in the description box! Sorry about that 😅. Also for those asking, of course you can use something other than walnuts. Or you can just leave them out entirely. Cookies are very forgiving in this respect. Go nuts! Or not, if nuts ain’t your thing 😂

You can also food process them so they are finely ground, but not too finely ground(or paste)and reduce the amount of walnuts to 75 grams...I made a version that way and you don't notice the walnuts in there, but they do give that buttery-ness you spoke about, Sally :)

who else agrees Sally needs her own channel!

I've been trying to find a decent cookie recipe forever and you totally nailed it! I've made more than 6 batches already for friends and family and it's a success, thank you!

I followed this recipe, but used 3 bars of Lindt chocolate and smashed them up into chunks (1 dark with sea salt, 2 60% milk) and they turned out INCREDIBLE. Thank you for sharing!!

Hi. Is the recepie to sweet?

EDIT: The Levain cookies are chilled for 24 hours and besides letting the butter solidify, it develops the flavor of the cookies further. For those who can wait, I definitely recommend following the 24 hours cooling. Questions: 1. Dough weight: Each raw dough is around 6 oz each. Use a scale for even measurement and even baking. 2. Chilling: By chilling, it means in the fridge and not the freezer. Cover the tray with cling wrap so it doesn't absorb the fridge smell. Chilling keeps the butter from melting too fast when baked so this is crucial for keeping your cookies going flat. 3. Baking: Once it's done chilling, you can bake it right away without needing it to come to room temperature. It also keeps the cookies from spreading (i.e. wide and flat cookies) and yields a puffier/rounder signature Levain cookie shape. 4. Brown butter vs regular butter: You can definitely use brown butter, it's just not what Levain does to their cookies. 5. Reverse creaming: Levain does the more common method (i.e. creaming butter with sugars, then eggs, and flour.) Reverse creaming is a method you can try if you have issues with over-mixing the batter. Reverse creaming is the method where the butter protects against gluten-development. 6. Since it's rare that we want to have a dozen cookies in one sitting, you can leave the cookies in the fridge for 24 hours to develop flavor before transferring them to the freezer. If baking cookies directly from the freezer, baking time can go up to 19-21 mins.

I made these cookies a week ago and they are probably the best cookies I have EVER made! They taste like heaven! Even better than the ones I eat at subway! But yes as you can see these aren’t the flat ones if you are looking for. The cookies were thick and dense just like in the video and they definitely taste the best.

I've never been to NY, sad fact is I've never left New Zealand! But I've made soo many of your cookie recipes over the past year or so that I now know them by heart, I keep coming back to watch you both you are so easy to follow and your energies are welcoming. Thank you.

My entire family is obsessed with how these turned out!!! Although I didnt put them in the freezer, rather kept them in the fridge and baked them for about 20 - 21 minutes and they were perfect!

I’ve watched this video at least 40 times and I am just loving the dynamic between Sally and Dane. I’ve mentioned it before but they are both so satisfying to watch and listen to and in fact, I’m making these cookies again as we speak.

I made these and they came out nicely, but I used 1/4 milk chocolate and 3/4 semisweet. Next time I would use all semisweet. I would also definitely use roasted pecans instead of walnuts, which pairs better with things buttery and salty. I would also add vanilla, which is usually in chocolate chip cookies. Without the vanilla the cookie flavor minus the chips is predominantly "walnut."

Nathan Hittle “I’m rubbing the nuts together until their skin falls off” 😬😬

Tried these and they were delicious! I used semi-sweet chocolate chips instead of milk choc as recommended by others. I also took out the nuts and subbed out the self raising flour for adjusted quantities of plain flour, baking powder and salt & they turned out great! However, it took way longer than 17 mins (I used the fan setting at 185C) as the insides were still raw. It took me around 35 mins in the end so you might have to adjust yours depending on your oven. So worth the wait though! Either that or make them smaller. ps. I stored mine in the fridge overnight before baking them so that might have contributed to the increase in baking time.

I just found this last night! Got my dough waiting in the freezer now! I cant wait im so excited😂
