How to Make Otis Spunkmeyer's Chocolate Chip Cookies

  1. Whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder in a small bowl. Set aside.
  2. In a small saucepan, melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1/2 cup vegetable shortening over low heat. Stir until completely melted and smooth.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup packed light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Gradually pour in the melted butter mixture, beating until well combined.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients, 1/2 cup at a time, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 1 cup chocolate chips and 1 cup chopped nuts (optional).
  7. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight) to allow the flavors to meld and the dough to firm up.
  8. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  9. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Baking time may vary depending on your oven.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
