Ingredients

  • 1 Cup butter
  • 3/4 Cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 Cup white granulated sugar
  • 2 Cups plain flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 Cup chocolate chips
  • 1 cup pecans roughly chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl beat the butter on high speed for a minute or so. Add the brown sugar, granulated sugar, egg and vanilla. Beat until mixture is combined just about a minute, scraping sides of bowl occasionally.
  • Stir in flour mixture until combined. Fold in chocolate chips and pecans.
  • Drop dough by rounded teaspoons 2 inches apart onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 7 or 8 minutes or until edges are lightly browned but still soft and slightly wobbly in the middle.
  • Remove from oven and while still warm, slightly flatten each cookie gently with the back of a spatula. This makes the cookie a little denser.
  • Let cool a few minutes before transferring the cookies to a wire rack. Once cooled completely can be stored in an airtight container for about a week.
