Equipment

  • large mixing bowl
  • Electric mixer
  • Cookie scoop
  • Cookie sheet

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter cold
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 ½ cups cake flour
  • 1 ½ cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 ½ cups chopped pecans

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, place the sugars and butter. Since the butter is cold, best to either cube it or run it over a grater (as shown in the photos) to make mixing easier.
  • Beat the butter and the sugars together for 3-4 minutes.
  • Add in the eggs and beat.
  • Add in the vanilla.
  • Add in the flours, cornstarch, salt and baking soda and mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips and pecans until well mixed.
  • Scoop the dough into 16 equal portions and place on a tray and cover with plastic wrap.
  • Chill for 2 hours (best if overnight) before baking.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Make sure the cookies are placed 3-4” apart on a baking tray and bake for 9-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden.
  • Remove and allow to cool before serving.
