Loaded with chocolate chips and pecans, each bite will be packed full of flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have been using the same Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe for 18 years. The recipe was inspired by a cooking class that I took during my junior year of high school. Over the years, I have made a few tweaks to it. This has mainly been due to me not having one ingredient or another, so I have substituted. As it turns out, with each substitution, my husband and I have liked the recipe a little more each time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>This Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe gets rave compliments any time I bring them anywhere. Friends and family always request them for get-togethers, and my husband sometimes jokes that during our dating years, these cookies are what made him stay. Luckily, my evil plan worked! *wink*<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SUGGESTIONS FOR BAKING CHOCOLATE CHIP PECAN COOKIES<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I have found that by using self-rising flour, it does give the cookies more rise, and they spread out slightly, creating a bigger cookie. It also provides the cookies a slightly saltier flavor, totally embracing the sweet and salty combination. After using self-rising flour by mistake once, I haven\u2019t gone back to all-purpose again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/liferunsweet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Chocolate-Chip-Pecan-Cookies-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies\" class=\"wp-image-369\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liferunsweet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Chocolate-Chip-Pecan-Cookies-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/liferunsweet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Chocolate-Chip-Pecan-Cookies-scaled-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/liferunsweet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Chocolate-Chip-Pecan-Cookies-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/liferunsweet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Chocolate-Chip-Pecan-Cookies-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/liferunsweet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Chocolate-Chip-Pecan-Cookies-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/liferunsweet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Chocolate-Chip-Pecan-Cookies-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/liferunsweet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Chocolate-Chip-Pecan-Cookies-1080x810.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Another thing is that I always mix this cookie dough recipe by hand. Putting it in a mixer does something to the consistency, and the baked product turns out more cake-like. If you like cake-like cookies, this may be perfect for you. My husband and I prefer ours slightly doughy in the middle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>Disclosure: Some of the links below are affiliate links, meaning, at no additional cost to you, I will earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When baking cookies, I always use my <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B07GY1F54K\/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=liferunsweet-20&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B07GY1F54K&amp;linkId=4efa24f93dbf337b222e601afd72730f\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color:#bd1d8d\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>Anolon Cookie Sheet<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. I got this set 8 years ago, and each piece has held up wonderfully. The pans are heavier duty and are built to last. If taken care of, the pans won\u2019t rust, and their nonstick surface holds up beautifully. When using the cookie sheet, I never have to grease the surface, and my chocolate chip pecan cookies always come right off. Although, I will admit that I sometimes line it with parchment paper if I am feeling lazy and want to avoid scrubbing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hey, I\u2019m only human! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies are admittedly best fresh out of the oven. However, I do suggest waiting just a few minutes to avoid burning your mouth! The cooling process can be expedited by transferring them to a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00WS3OCWE\/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=liferunsweet-20&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;creativeASIN=B00WS3OCWE&amp;linkId=b39f99acba36cbaaf36e87864481c277\" target=\"_blank\"><strong><span style=\"color:#bd1d8d\" class=\"has-inline-color\">cooling rack<\/span><\/strong><\/a>. This also helps prevent the cookies from cooling too much and sticking to the cookie sheet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cookies will last 5-7 days if stored in an airtight container.
