My husband takes cookies or brownies with him wherever he goes, so I’m always baking to keep our freezer stocked. As I type, I’m planning to make three double batches of assorted cookies tomorrow to refill the freezer. 🙂 The cookies I made in August were particularly memorable—every bite was rich, decadent, and mouthwatering.
I love chocolate anything. But add Butter Pecan flavoring and the texture and taste is amped up astronomically! Plus, these cookies are just so very easy to make. If you purchase chopped pecans rather than whole, they’re even easier.
If you want a cookie to knock your socks off, give Chocolate Butter Pecan Cookies a try. Each batch makes about 3 dozen of the best cookies you’ll ever eat. Hey, for that matter, better make a double batch of these delightful cookies at once!

Chocolate Butter Pecan Cookies are sensational.

These cookies are so delicious warm, right out of the oven.

Chocolate Butter Pecan Cookies are ooey, gooey & scrumptious.

These cookies are great for tailgating parties and potlucks.
Here’s what I did.

I used these ingredients.

Pour Butter Pecan Cake Mix into a mixing bowl. Add eggs and oil.

Stir ingredients with a wooden spoon to combine.

Add chocolate chips and chopped pecans.

Stir ingredients again to combine well.

Grease cookie sheets with cooking spray. Roll dough into balls and place on greased cookie sheets. (I had to keep my hands slightly moist while rolling).

Bake at 350 for 13-15 minutes or until done. I was baking 3 racks at a time. My cookies took 18-20 minutes to bake.
Be sure to rotate cookie sheets on racks every 6-7 minutes while baking.

If you enjoy the flavors of chocolate and Butter Pecan, you’ll love these cookies.

The softened chocolate chips were nice and gooey.

Look at all those chocolate chips! Yum.
Here’s the recipe.
