Cuisine: American
Serves: 24 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, using an electric mixer or whisk.
- Add vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, stirring until a cohesive dough forms.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped pecans, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Gently flatten each cookie ball with the back of a spoon or your palm to create a slightly rounded shape.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.
- Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Tips
- • Use room temperature butter for the smoothest, most even cream with brown sugar • Don't overmix the dough - mix just until ingredients are combined to keep cookies tender • For uniform cookies, use a cookie scoop or weigh each dough ball • Make sure to space cookies 2 inches apart to allow proper spreading • Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to help them set before transferring • Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to 5 days • For extra indulgence, try using dark chocolate chips or adding a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking • Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking for thicker, chewier cookies
