Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup (softened) unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup (packed) light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the white chocolate chips and chopped pecans using a spatula until evenly distributed.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still look slightly underbaked, which is perfect for a chewy texture.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your White Chocolate Pecan Drop Cookies with a glass of milk or cup of coffee!
