Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Step 3 The Prep

First you want to toast you some nuts.  This makes for the extra yum.  If you're allergic, I guess you should skip this part. 
In a pre-heated 350^oF (180C) oven bake:

• 2 cups (about 225 g) nuts (I prefer pecans in this recipe)  

for 10 mintues on an ungreased cookie sheet.  Let cool.  If you don't it will cause your chocolate pieces to get melty in the batter.  Which is what happened to me.  Which I rather liked and will probably be doing again.  So choose your own adventure.

While those are baking, chop up:

• 14 ounces (400 g) bittersweet chocolate

Insider tip: for the ultimate cookie, use only chocolate with at least 60 percent cacao content and shoot for a ratio of chocolate to dough of no less than 40 to 60.

I have no pecans... Would peanuts work?

Probably not. They're good without nuts too, though.
