Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup pecans, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Cream the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Whisk together the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, and salt) in a separate bowl. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped pecans.
- Scoop dough using a cookie scoop or tablespoon and place onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the centers are still slightly soft.
- Cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- You can use milk chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet if you prefer a sweeter cookie.
- For an extra crunch, toast the pecans before mixing them into the dough.
- If you like a chewier texture, slightly underbake the cookies by 1-2 minutes.
