Method
- Combine butter, light brown sugar, white sugar, vanilla extract, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and nutmeg in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment.
- Mix on low speed to moisten the ingredients. Increase the speed to medium and beat until the mixture is soft, fluffy, and pale, which takes about 8 minutes. Halfway through this mixing time, stop the mixer to scrape the bowl and the beater using a flexible spatula.
- With the mixer running, add the eggs one at a time. Wait for each egg to incorporate fully into the mixture before adding the next one.
- Reduce the mixer speed to low. Add the flour all at once. When the flour is incorporated, add the chocolate chips and nuts. Continue mixing until the dough is uniform.
Notes
This recipe was developed for baking enthusiasts looking for a giant chocolate chip cookie that fits a keto lifestyle. The original recipe uses standard flour and sugar, but you can substitute these with keto-friendly alternatives like almond flour and sugar-free chocolate chips to achieve a similar texture and flavor profile while reducing carbs.
