    Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies

    These big fat Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies are chock full of semi-sweet chocolate chips and roasted salted pecans giving you that sweet, salty satisfaction.

    Making a cookie that Grumpy will love

    Grumpy loves a big chewy cookie and I am always on the lookout for a chocolate chip cookie recipe that will stay chewy for more than a day. While these cookies still did not meet that requirement, they were delicious. If you like them chewy, then that will last for about a day.

    Otherwise, these cookies got quite crunchy after the first day. I think by day three, Grumpy stopped going to the cookie box. Thankfully by then, there was only one cookie left and I snuck it into his lunchbox the next day. When he came home, it was gone, so I am pretty sure he still ate it even though it was crunchy!

    What I learned by making these Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies

    This recipe made a good 2 dozen cookies. I used my large cookie scoop which measures out about ¼ cup of dough. After scooping the cookies onto the parchment paper-lined cookie sheet, I flattened them so they weren't a domed cookie ball. Maybe if I had baked these a little less time they would have stayed chewy. I'm not certain but I may give that a try because these cookies had great flavor.

    Do you have a tried and true chewy cookie recipe? I would love to have you link me up in the comments so I can check the recipe out and give it a try for Grumpy!

      Salt is supposed to be added to the flour and baking soda but no quantity is listed; discovered this after I dumped the baking soda into the flour. Will try to find a similiar recipe for quantity. Can you update the recipe so someone else doesn't encounter this? Thank you.

        Hi Margaret. I will make sure to add the salt to the recipe, it was an oversight on my part. The amount is 1 teaspoon. If you use salted butter, you can omit the salt all together.
