Tips & Substitutions
To enhance the flavor, consider using browned butter instead of regular butter for a nutty taste. If you're out of eggs, you can substitute each egg with 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce. For a fun twist, add a pinch of cinnamon or a handful of oats. Ensure your baking sheets are ungreased for crispier edges.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet?
Absolutely! Dark chocolate will give your cookies a richer flavor. Just keep in mind that it may make the cookies slightly less sweet, so adjust the sugar to taste if desired.
What can I use instead of nuts if there are allergies?
You can easily omit the nuts or substitute with seeds like sunflower or pumpkin seeds. For a chewy texture, consider adding dried fruit like cranberries or raisins instead.
How do I know when the cookies are done baking?
The cookies should be lightly browned on the edges but still soft in the center when you take them out of the oven. They will continue to firm up as they cool, so be careful not to overbake them.
