Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until creamy and well-combined.
Mix in the maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips and chopped pecans until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden, but the centers are still soft.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
