Pecan Chocolate Delight Cookies These cookies are a delicious twist on the classic chocolate chip cookie, combining rich chocolate chunks and crunchy pecans for a delightful treat. Ingredients: - 2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour - 1 3.4 oz package instant vanilla pudding mix - 1 teaspoon baking soda - 1 teaspoon salt - 1 cup butter, softened - 3/4 cup granulated sugar - 3/4 cup light brown sugar - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract - 2 large eggs - 2 cups pecan halves, roughly chopped - 2 cups chocolate chunks Instructions: 1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, pudding mix, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. 2. Cream the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla using an electric mixer. Beat for 2-3 minutes until light and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. 3. Lower the mixer speed and gradually add the dry ingredients. Once added, increase the speed and mix for about 1 minute until fully combined. 4. Fold in the chopped pecans and chocolate chunks by hand. 5. Transfer the dough to an airtight container and chill for 12 hours until firm. 6. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. 7. Use a medium ice cream scoop or two tablespoons to form dough mounds, placing them at least 2 inches apart on the baking sheets. 8. Bake for 14-16 minutes until lightly golden. Let the cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a rack to cool completely. 9. Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature to keep them fresh.
