Equipment

  • 2 18x26" cookie sheet pans
  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 electric mixer
  • 1 wooden spoon
  • 1 nut chopper if nuts are not previously chopped
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • 1 spatula
  • 2 wire cooling racks
  • 1 1/4 cup cookie scoop

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups unsalted butter softened (3 sticks) (one of my sticks was salted)
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups light brown sugar packed
  • 1 tbsp. real vanilla extract no substitutions (3 teaspoons)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 cups UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour (bleached flour toughens baked goods)
  • 2 tsp. baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp. sea salt
  • 12 oz. pkg. semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 12 oz. pkg. miniature chocolate chips
  • 1 cup pecans roasted and salted, chopped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Mix butter, sugars, eggs, vanilla, baking soda and salt in a large mixing bowl with electric beaters until smooth.
  • Stir in flour, both kinds of chocolate chips and pecans.
  • Stir thoroughly; this may take 4-5 minutes.
  • With a large cookie scoop, scoop cookie dough and pack it down into the cookie scoop so dough adheres together well.
  • Place cookie dough onto ungreased cookie sheets approximately 3 to 4-inches apart.
  • Bake 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • Rotate cookies on racks every seven to eight minutes while baking.
  • Cool cookies about 5 minutes on cookie sheets before removing to wire racks to cool completely.

Notes

NOTE: My cookies took about 18 minutes to bake completely.
 
NOTE: You will probably need to stir the cookie dough about 5 minutes to get all the flour worked into it.
 
NOTE: This recipe makes really large cookies.
 
NOTE: Because this recipe uses so much flour, I usually keep stirring after the flour has been worked in so that the dough is no longer crumbly. I continue stirring until the dough starts adhering together in large clumps.
 
Recipe adapted from Gold Medal Flour.
