Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups White chocolate chips
- 1 cup Pecans, roughly chopped
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, beat the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until the mixture is light and creamy, approximately 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract until combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until no dry streaks remain.
Gently fold in the white chocolate chips and chopped pecans using a spatula or wooden spoon, ensuring an even distribution throughout the dough.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. This will give the cookies room to spread as they bake.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underdone but will set as they cool.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the pans for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the cookies fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
