Notes
Storage: Store leftovers covered at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat individual slices in the microwave for 10–15 seconds to restore gooeyness. Make-Ahead: Prepare the dough up to 24 hours in advance, cover, and refrigerate; bring to room temperature before baking. Variations: Substitute chocolate chips with white chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, or dried cranberries. For a nut-free version, omit walnuts. Serving: Top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra treat.
