Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 0.5 cup caramel bits
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 0.25 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, and mix until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
Fold in the chopped pecans and caramel bits using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Portion the dough into 1.5-tablespoon-sized balls and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked but will firm up as the cookies cool.
While the cookies are cooling, prepare the praline glaze. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream and powdered sugar, stirring until smooth and slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
Drizzle the warm praline glaze over the cooled cookies using a spoon, allowing it to set before serving.
Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
