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.

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

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 !

who else agrees Sally needs her own channel!

I love seeing the shop coming together and being on the channel! Sending my love to Jemma, hope she's feeling better 💙

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!

This recipe is next level and turned out as the best chocolate chip cookie I've ever eaten. Thank you.

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 😂

I can wholeheartedly say this is by far the best cookie recipe! If you're debating whether to bake these cookies let me assure you that you will not regret it! They are fantastic. Thank you so much for the recipe!

Just made the cookies and they were a hit! Thanks for the recipe... I've been waiting for years to find one that looks good enough to try it... And they really came out amazing

These were incredible! My husband said these are the best chocolate chip cookies he has ever had and he is a self-proclaimed cookie connoisseur. Thank you so much! I substituted roasted pecans for walnuts and they were great..

dane is such a pure soul and sally is lovely, such a great vid

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.

Thanks so very much for this recipe & video. It's Father's Day weekend here in Singapore & I got my husband to bake these amazing cookies. It was his FIRST attempt baking cookies from scratch! He loved the simplicity of the recipe & the instructions were easy to follow. It was the best batch of cookies we have ever had ever!🥰👍❤❤❤❤❤

Thanks for sharing this! I’m a first time baker and I made this yesterday. I baked them in small batches just to test it out. The first two tries, my cookies were burnt underneath. Good thing you had another video answering all our cookie questions. I adjusted my rack and doubled my sheet pan & baking paper as well as adjusted my cooking time. It came out really perfect!! I’m planning to gift these to friends & family for the holidays 🌲

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 made this and turned out the best cookies I've made.. thanks so much, you guys are amazing!

Thank you so much for taking the time to figure out and then sharing the Levain Bakery’s recipe! I’m a New Yorker now living in Colombia and I really miss Levain’s chocolate chip cookies! I can’t wait to make this recipe. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Made em, delicious. Thank you Sally and Dane for all your effort and sharing.

I made these today and I must admit they are delicious! I was skeptical about not using vanilla or dark brown sugar but the taste is amazing and this is now my favorite recipe to make going forward!

Fab video guys - smashing it in Jemma’s absence!!! Really enjoyed the idea of the it not just being a how to recipe but more of a how you got to the end result and explaining why (the science!!!) Keep up the good work and get better soon Jemma, even though your team are doing a fab job we still miss you!!!

I have to come back and say thank you for this recipe - I've made it again and again and it's loved by all!!

I've seen.these in travel vlogs so much that I just have to try these to see how good they are! Thanks for the upload 😍

I JUST MADE THIS AND THEY WERE DELICIOUS PERFECT THANK U

Okay, I'm making them this weekend for sure

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!

You two are adorable, thanks for all your hard work figuring out this recipe. ❤️

These are so brilliant, specifically that you can prep ahead and bake fresh. Thanks for doing the researching and testing for us, can’t wait to try these!

They work so well together. It was like watching a choreography 😍

love Sally and how she explains everything so well❤

I have viewed this video over and over again before trying it out - it did not fail me! Your recipe is true to the actual outcomes shown in the video, and also, it was that easy to make with your help. All the best to Cupcakejemma and the whole team, Sally & Dane 🥰

Go Team! The cookies look delicious. However, I especially love your dynamic duo! More videos like this! And get well soon, Jemma!

This is it! The cookie holy grail! I’ve been trying for years to get cookies to turn out right but I could never find the right recipe or technique. This video has changed everything! My first batch just came out and they were AMAZING! Thank you so much ☺️

Oh my goodness! Big thank you so much to the C&D team for sharing the take on those cookies that I've never heard about (probably due to the fact that I and other viewers are not from the States). Can't wait to try these out and share with my family and friends!

I really love their chemistry!

I just made these and they are delicious! I used 300g semisweet and 100g dark chocolate instead of the milk chocolate and they taste great. Also they look soo impressive!

The C&D team is really made up of the most talented people on the planet! Kudos to Sally and Dane!

Best cookie recipe. They came out really good. Loved them.

I got a new KitchenAid and decided to try this recipe out for the first time, and it turned out heavenly! It's that rare cookie where just one leaves me more than satisfied 😋

Seeing all of those cookie samples reminds me of when Monica was trying to figure out Phoebe's grandma's cookie recipe 😂

I’ve been trying a couple of levain style cookie recipes and yours works most perfectly! They stay thiccc, perfect crunch and goooo

I tried these cookies and they are the best cookies i ever baked ! , do it with exactly the same amount of chocolate cuz its amazing 😍! Thank you sally and dane for sharing this wonderful recipe 🥰!!

They really are the best cookies I've ever had! Amazing recipe!

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. Get well soon Jemma and please see about keeping Sally and Dane as regular guests. They’re absolutely amazing x

Someone finally cracked it! Looking forward to try it ♥️

Omg!! I never had this much delicious cookie ever! Thank u for sharing this fabulous recipe!!! You guys are awesome!! 👍🙌

I baked these today and they were delicious!! Thank you for sharing your recipes ❤❤❤❤

I've made this countless of times and it's easily my favorite cookie recipe!!

Great version of the Levain Bakery Cookies guys! Really makes me want to go back to NY just to have a bite of the absolute best cookies in world 🤤🤤

I love Sally and Dane tandem! I find myself smiling when I watch them.

I love cookies, i love baking them, i love that you guys made a cookie only playlist, i love it!!!

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 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!!

Just made them today and they are excellent !! Thank you guys for your hard work and sharing this recipe :)

I’ve just made this now and it is the best chewy cookie I’ve ever had!! Thank you!!!!!!

Sally and Dane are the two most adorable human beings in the world!

Im shocked at how beautiful and delicious these cookies turned out because Im a mediocre baker at best and they came out picture perfect! My mom prefers white chocolate so I subbed those in and added a bit of cinnamon, which is something I learned from a pro baker I used to work with. The house smells incredible. Thank you for sharing this recipe!

Baked these yesterday and they’re soooo decadent. Amazing recipe thank you!!!!

I just Baked These cookies yesterday and they came out so delicious, thank u so much for this amazing recipe ❤️❤️

I love this video - have seen it more than 10 times 🙂

I made these cookies yesterday. They tasted SOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOD i couldnt put nuts in bcz of allergies but they were big and gooey and amazing. Thanks Sally and Dane!!!!!

We (my daughter and I) love baking these together! They taste fantastic with dark chocolate, too!

Will definitely try this one! Thanks for sharing the recipe😊

the thin one looks soooo appealing

Loved when Sally counted down so she & Dane could break open their cookies together 😊😊 Also, please, please 🙏🏽🙏🏽 share the recipe/ technique for the flat, giant cookie at 1:40. I'd love to bite into that saucer.

You guys are super adorable!! This cookies look amazing!

This is the third recipe I tried for baking choco chip cookies and this is the best recipe ever I tried!!!

I've seen some cookie recipes where they put in like cream cheese to make it soft. Never got around to making them...but just throwing it out there. Love the experimenting from your adventures again. ❤️❤️❤️

I made these tonight and they are UNREAL. Thank you so much Jemma and everyone at Crumbs & Doilies!

Having tried all different kinds of recipes, I honestly think it’s the best! Thank you for sharing and keep up!Gongrats!

thank you so much for sharing this😊 God bless you both😊 i really like sally here, she was so simple

This will be my mum's dream cookie!!!

These are by far the best cookies I have made and tasted. Everyone I have baked them for has nothing but compliments and demands for a batch to take home for themselves. Keep up it people 💙

Yesss, I've been looking for this recipe for a while!

tried this, work an absolute treat. Cheers guys they are amazing

Dane is a natural in front of the camera. I’d listen to him explain anything

How is the whole Crumbs & Doilies crew the best?! Can't wait to try these!

The dedication and quality control wow!! 😯🤩💛

Your recipes are simply the best

You’ve smashed this Sally and Dane! Dream team!

I am so making these with my son while we are in lockdown!

definitely the bests cookies I've ever ate !! AMAZING

Wow. Thats all i have to say. Words cant describe how amazing these were!

I made these straight away and have to say, the best I’ve ever had in my life!

I didn't have a stand mixer so I just used my hands and they turned out amazing, first time ever making cookies, 100% recommend the recipe and technique

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

Thank you for sharing the recipe! The recipe really works!

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."

Those look amazing. You two are fab on camera 😊

Tried it and family said it’s their new favorite! 🤤❤️

Thank you so much for this recipe!! tried lot of choco chip cookies recipes but there were some errors but this came out so well !!!!! THE BEST COOKIE RECIPE SO FAR!!!! And all your videos are so entertaning , lovely and interesting to watch! Keep up the good work guys!❤

Looks so yummy ! Reminds me a lot of the one of William's Kitchen he shared a couple of months ago, I am always looking for the best cookie recipe and more now that Christmas is coming !

I just made these...it's 11pm here...I ate 2 already and I'm very tempted to eat another one #help lol They are so goooood!

I made half this recipe and half the chocolate one. I used almonds in this recipe! Omg it was delicious. ❤️ Probably my new go to recipe

Omg these cookies are amazing!!!! Made it this afternoon and the hardest part was waiting 5/10 minutes to let them sit and cool down..can't promise they resist till after breakfast.

Just want to drop by and say that these cookies are sooooo delicious!! I’ve made both these and the nyc double chocolate ones and they’re both so amazing! I finished them with a sprinkle of crystal sea salt for that extra pizazz hehe thank you for the recipe!

Thank you all, for your hard work and for sharing this recipe! I made these with 500g King Arthur AP Flour (and the adjusted 1TBL baking powder 1 tsp salt), Ghiradelli semi-sweet chocolate chips (large), and no walnuts... froze for 2hr... AMAZING! These beat Mrs. Field's IMO! If you like CC cookies, don't pass up making these! Best to you all.

Tried these cookies. They r a hit with everyone. Thank u for this amazing recipe

I took a triple batch of these into work tonight (busy A&E). They lasted less than an hour and at least 6 people have asked for the recipe, I sent them the link to this video. Super delicious
