Ingredients

  • 8 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 2/3 cup flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Add the butter brown sugar and white sugar to a mixing bowl and mix until well combined. 
  • Beat in the vanilla and egg until just combined.
  • Add the flour, baking soda, and salt and mix until just combined.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips and pecans by hand, reserving a few to press onto the tops of the cookie dough, if desired.
  • Use a small cookie scoop or measure out balls of cookie dough that are 2 teaspoons each and portion them out on a large baking sheet, about an inch apart. Press the reserved chocolate chips into the tops of the dough, if desired.
  • Bake for 8 minutes exactly. Cookies will still be slightly underdone when you remove them from the oven. Do not overbake. 
  • Let sit on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack or eating.

Notes

I highly recommend using a small cookie scoop to make evenly sized cookies. They'll bake more evenly and cookie scooping is a dream with a good scoop. Here is the one I use and recommend. (affiliate)
