Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
2. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer on medium speed.
3. Add Egg: Beat in the egg until it is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift the flour to ensure there are no lumps. Gradually add the flour to the butter-sugar mixture, mixing until just combined. Don't overmix, as this can make the cookies tough.
5. Fold in Chocolate and Walnuts: Gently fold in the chopped dark chocolate and walnuts until they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
6. Shape the Dough: Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Make sure to space them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
7. Bake the Cookies: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Baking times may vary slightly depending on your oven.
8. Cool the Cookies: Once done, remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for a few minutes. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
