Ingredients

• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2.25 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup Pecans, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the chocolate chips and pecans (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Scoop out about 1.5 tablespoons of dough (use a cookie scoop or spoon) and place them onto the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers appear slightly underbaked. Do not overbake for soft cookies.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy! Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
