Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350F (175C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
In a heavy saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and 1 cup of the chocolate chips together, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, brown sugar, and melted chocolate mixture.
-
Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, milk, and lemon juice until well combined.
-
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
-
Fold in the remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips and the chopped walnuts.
-
Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
-
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly soft.
-
Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
