Organic Chewy Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookies
(Recipe by Andria Naseski)
INGREDIENTS: ¾ cups of melted organic unsalted butter (cooled slightly) 1 cup organic brown sugar ¼ cup organic raw sugar cane 1 tbs organic Madagascar vanilla extract 1 Egg 1 Egg yolk 2 cups organic all purpose flour ½ tsp organic baking soda ½ tsp salt 1 cup of organic dark chocolate chips ½ cup of organic chopped pecans
INSTRUCTIONS: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
In a stand mixer, cream together the melted butter and sugars until well blended. Bean in egg, egg yolk and vanilla and until light and creamy. In a separate bowl, sift flour, salt and baking soda together. Mix the sifted ingredients with the butter mixture until just blended. Remove from stand mixer and stir in chocolate chips with a wooden spoon.
Put Mixture in the fridge for 15-30 mins so the butter cools slightly (otherwise your cookies will fall flat when baking).
Place a small ball of cookie dough using a spoon onto the cookie sheet - 2 inches apart and bake for 11-14 mins until golden brown. Do not over back the cookies are meant to be a little chewy. Cool on sheet for a few mins before transferring to a wire rack to completely cool.
Enjoy!
