Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 grams Brown sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 25 grams Cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 75 grams Chopped pecans
- 50 grams Dark chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain the cookie's delicate texture.
Fold in the chopped pecans and dark chocolate chips using a spatula.
Using a teaspoon or small cookie scoop, drop small portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart as the cookies will spread during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-10 minutes, or until the edges are firm and the centers appear set.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
