A classic cookie taken to the next level with an extra serving of chocolate chips, chopped pecan and a dash of sea salt! These are the Best Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies!
In a mixer with paddle attachment, cream together the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy
Add in eggs and vanilla extract, one at a time until and mix until fully combined
Gradually add in the flour, baking soda and salt; mix until the batter is smooth and all ingredients are incorporated
Add chopped chocolate chips and pecan pieces to the batter; mix well
Transfer the dough into a bowl or air tight container and refrigerate for 2-3 hours or for best results, overnight!
Scoop batter into 2 inch balls, sprinkle sea salt on top of each and place a pecan half on top of each ball of dough (do not flatten the dough)
Bake the cookies for 12-13 minutes or until the edges are golden brown (the center may still seem under cooked, but they do continue to bake out of the oven)
