Baking Chocolate Chip Cookies

Well, I am working on some figures for the Christmas shopping rush. Making some chocolate chip cookies to keep me going through the evening of research.  Beware, my Chocolate chip cookie recipe is very morish & chewy. Cookie dough recipe is as follows


220g light brown sugar, tightly packed
110g caster sugar, golden caster is always better
300g plain flour
150g of chopped nuts, pecans, walnuts or macadamia
2 tsp baking powder
185g melted butter, cooled
1 egg + 1 egg yolk
Vanilla, 1/2 a pod or 2 teaspoons of good quality vanilla extract
200g chocolate, chop up a good quality chocolate bar, I use a 72% chocolate


Method:


Preheat your oven to 180 C or 350 F
Combine your sugars, flour, baking powder and nuts
Separately Combine butter, egg, egg yolk, vanilla
Mix the wet mixture with the dry mixture & add in your chocolate pieces
Let the mixture rest in the fridge for 30 minutes
Place level tablespoons onto a lined baking tray 
Bake for 10-11 minutes 
Cool on the trays
