Equipment
Ingredients
- 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened at room temperature
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
- 1 cup chopped pistachios, unsalted and roasted, divided
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the softened butter for about 3 minutes, until light and fluffy.
- Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar and beat together with the butter until combined, about 2 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and then the vanilla, until combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients just until combined. Do not overmix!
- Gently fold in ¾ of the chocolate chips and ¾ of the chopped pistachios, just until incorporated throughout the batter.
- Scoop out about 1½" dough balls and place on the prepared baking sheet at least 2 inches apart. Top each dough ball with 2-3 chocolate chips and some chopped pistachios.
- Bake at 350°F for 9-11 minutes, just until the edges are set. The middle may look slightly underdone (but it will continue baking while cooling). Allow to cool on the pan fir 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling wire rack.
