Add butter and sugars to a large mixing bowl. Use a hand mixer on low to combine. Increase speed to medium and cream 1-2 minutes until light and fluffy.
Add the minced eggs and vanilla. Mix on low to incorporate.
Add the flour, baking soda, and salt. Use a wooden spoon to incorporate.
Stir in the nuts and chocolate chips. The mixture will initially be dry, but continue stirring until it forms a thick dough.
For small cookies, scoop 1 tablespoon portions on to a parchment lined baking sheet spaced 1" apart.
Bake for 10 minutes or until just golden on the edges. Do not overbake.
Cool on the pan 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Notes
Makes 24-60 cookies depending on the size.
I found letting the dough rest 15 minutes before baking allowed the flour to absorb the butter and made the dough easier to scoop.
Take care not to over bake the cookies. They should be just golden around the edges.
