confectioners’ sugar
3/4 cup
Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1/2 tsp.

1 tsp.
pure vanilla extract
1 cup
toasted walnuts, chopped
1/2 cup

Directions

1. Step 1Heat oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and lightly coat with cooking spray.
2. Step 2In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Using an electric mixer, beat together eggs and vanilla. Add sugar mixture and mix to combine; fold in walnuts and chocolate chips.
3. Step 3Spoon batter (about 1 1/2 Tbsp per cookie) onto prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 in. apart, and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
