Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup whole pecans, roughly chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using a hand or stand mixer.

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. Avoid overmixing to ensure soft, tender cookies.

Step 6

Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped pecans using a spatula or spoon.

Step 7

Scoop dough onto the prepared baking sheets using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, leaving about 2 inches of space between cookies to allow for spreading.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly underbaked. This ensures a chewy texture.

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

Enjoy your bakery-beating chocolate pecan cookies fresh or store them in an airtight container for up to a week!
