Description
Large cookies filled with chocolate and buttered pecans.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chopped pecans, toasted
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 12 ounces chocolate candy bars (for stuffing)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the toasted pecans and chocolate chips.
- Prepare the stuffing: Cut the chocolate candy bars into 12 equal pieces.
- For each cookie, scoop about 1/4 cup of dough. Flatten the dough slightly in your hand. Place one piece of chocolate candy bar in the center. Wrap the dough around the chocolate, sealing it completely to form a large ball.
- Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between them.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers will look slightly underdone.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Toast the pecans lightly in a dry skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring often, before chopping and adding them to the dough.
- For best results, chill the dough balls for 30 minutes before baking.
