Instructions:
-
In a large mixing bowl, add the butter and beat using an electric mixer on medium speed for about 30 seconds until creamy and smooth.
-
Add in the sugar, baking powder, and baking soda to the bowl with the butter. Continue beating until the mixture is well combined and fluffy.
-
Pour in the melted chocolate, crack in the egg, and add the vanilla extract. Beat the mixture again until everything is thoroughly combined and smooth.
-
Gradually add in as much of the all-purpose flour as you can while beating with the electric mixer.
-
Switch to a wooden spoon and stir in the remaining flour, rolled oats, and chocolate morsels until evenly distributed and a cohesive dough forms.
-
Using a rounded teaspoon, drop the dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing them about 3 inches apart to allow for spreading during baking.
-
Top each mound of dough with a walnut half for an added crunch and visual appeal.
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and lightly golden brown.
-
Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
