PECAN CHOCOLATE CHIP

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  2. Cream the butter and sugars together in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. You can use a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment for this.
  3. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Combine the dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Fold in the pecans and chocolate chips with a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  7. Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie for spreading.
  8. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set. Keep an eye on them, as oven temperatures can vary.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.

These pecan chocolate chip cookies are wonderfully crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside, with a delightful balance of flavors from the pecans and chocolate. They’re perfect for serving at gatherings, as a treat for your family, or even as a special snack just for yourself. Enjoy baking and indulging in your homemade cookies!
