Chocolate Chip And Pecan Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, oats, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and brown sugar on high until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes, scraping down bowl as needed. Add vanilla and egg and beat to combine. With mixer on low, gradually add flour mixture and beat just until combined. Fold in pecans and chocolate chips.
• Drop dough by tablespoonfuls, 2 inches apart, onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake cookies until puffed and golden around edges, about 15 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Transfer cookies to wire racks to cool.

Steps:

• HEAT oven to 375ºF.
• COMBINE shortening, brown sugar, milk and vanilla in large bowl. Beat at medium speed of electric mixer until well blended. Beat in egg. Combine flour, salt and baking soda. Mix into shortening mixture until just blended. Stir in chocolate chips and nuts.
• DROP by rounded measuring tablespoonfuls 3 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheet.
• BAKE 8 to 10 minutes for chewy cookies, or 11 to 13 minutes for crisp cookies. Cool 2 minutes on baking sheet on a cooling rack. Remove cookies to rack to cool completely.
• TIP: If nuts are omitted, add an additional 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips.
• VARIATIONS.
• BAR COOKIES: HEAT oven to 375ºF. Follow recipe above to prepare dough. Spray a 13 x 9-inch pan with no-stick cooking spray. Spread dough evenly in pan.
• BAKE 19 to 21 minutes or until top is golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean and center feels slightly firm to the touch. Cool completely before cutting into bars.
• LARGE ROUNDS: HEAT oven to 375ºF. Follow recipe above to prepare dough. Spray small area in center of baking sheet with no-stick cooking spray. Cover with 12-inch square of foil.
• PLACE one-fourth of dough in center of foil. Form into a small circle with spatula or rubber scraper. Spray 12-inch square of wax paper with no-stick cooking spray. Place sprayed side down on top of dough. Flatten with round cake pan or pie pan to form a 7-inch circle. Remove wax paper.
• BAKE 9 to 10 minutes or until light golden color. Cool 5 minutes on baking sheet on a cooling rack. Remove to rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining cookie dough.
• CHOCOLATE DRIZZLE OR DIP: DRIZZLE: Melt 1 cup semi-sweet or white chocolate pieces with 1 teaspoon shortening over very low heat. Stir well. If too thick to drizzle, add 1/8 to 1/2 teaspoon more shortening to thin. Drizzle from end of spoon back and forth over cookie. Sprinkle with nuts before chocolate hardens. To harden chocolate quickly, place in refrigerator for a few minutes.
• DIP: Spoon melted chocolate into custard cup. Dip one end of cooled cookie halfway up in chocolate. Sprinkle with finely chopped nuts before chocolate hardens, or drizzle with contrasting white or dark chocolate. Place on wax paper.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
• Beat brown sugar, butter, evaporated milk, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl until creamy. Beat in egg. Gradually mix in flour mixture. Stir in chocolate chips and pecans. Spoon into balls and place on cookie sheets about 1 1/2 to 2 inches apart.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool for about 2 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Set oven to 375°.
• Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment or wax paper.
• In a small bowl whisk together flour, baking soda and salt.
• In a large bowl using an electric mixer beat melted butter with both sugars on high speed until fluffy (about 5 minutes).
• Add in eggs one at a time then egg yolk beating until creamy.
• Beat in the maple extract.
• Reduce the speed to low and add in the flour mixture until JUST blended.
• Stir in chocolate chips and pecans.
• Chill the dough for about 2 hours until semi-firm, or up to 24 hours.
• You can scoop the dough onto baking sheets and freeze to use later if desired.
• Scoop about 1/4-cup batter onto cookie sheet, leaving about 3-inches apart.
• Flatten mounds into 3-inch rounds using moistened palm of your hand.
• Repeat with remaining cookies (you will have to use two baking sheets for this and bake in two separate batches).
• Bake 1 sheet at a time for about 13-15 minutes.
• Transfer the cookies to a rack to cool and continue with remaining cookies.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

• Add molasses, eggs, and vanilla; beat on low speed just until blended.
• Gradually add flour mixture, beathing just until dough forms.
• Stir in chocolate morsels and toffee bits.
• Roll dough into 1-inch balls; then roll balls in turbinado sugar. Do not flatten. NOTE: You may need more turbinado sugar - just use more if you need more. I ended up with probably closer to 2 cups.
• Place 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets. Bake 10-12 minutes, or until lightly browned and slightly flattened.
• Let cool on pans for 15 minutes. Remove from pans, and cool completely on wire racks.
• NOTE: you may find it useful to rinse and dry hands every so often, as that helps the dough roll into a ball more easily.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F Beat butter, sugars, egg and vanilla.
• Add flour, oats and baking soda. Mix until blended.
• Add chocolate chips and pecans.
• Drop by level tablespoonfuls of dough onto ungreased baking sheets.
• Bake approximately 7-8 minutes (depends on your oven; you want these cookies to be tender coming out, but they should look like they are done baking).
• Transfer onto a wire rack after cooling for a few minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• In a bowl mix together margarine, brown sugar and white sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, and vanilla.
• Stir in oatmeal.
• Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda into the mix. Stir together until combined.
• Add in pecans and white chocolate chips.
• Bake at 375°F for 10-12 minutes or until done to your liking.
• *I like a soft chewy cookie so I usually bake 9-10 minutes. They will firm up on the tray if you let them cool a few minutes before removing them. A longer bake will produce a crisper cookie.
