Preparation

Step 1

In bowl, beat together butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time; beat in vanilla.

In separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt; stir into butter mixture. Stir in chocolate chips and pecans.

Drop by rounded tablespoon about 2" apart, onto parchment paper-lined baking sheets. With fork, flatten to 1/2" thickness.

Bake in 375F oven until edges are golden and centres are still slightly underbaked, 8 to 9 minutes. Let cool on pans on racks for 5 minutes. Transfer to racks; let cool. Makes 48 cookies.

* Reverse Chocolate Chip Cookies Variation: Substitute 1/3 cup cocoa powder for 1/3 cup of the flour, sifting with the flour before adding to the dough. Use 2 cups white chocolate chips instead of semisweet.
