I have always enjoyed cooking, and now that I have a new kitchen I have been cooking more than ever. Alex doesn’t have a very big sweet tooth, but the one thing he does request is my warm chocolate chip cookies à la mode. I like to make them with dark chocolate chips and pecans, but I often substitute semisweet chocolate chips for friends who don’t like dark chocolate. For years people have been asking for the recipe for my chocolate chip cookies, so I finally decided to share it with everyone! xoxo

Print Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe
1/2 cup softened butter
1 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 3/4 cups flour
6 ounces chopped pecans
6 ounces dark chocolate chips
Cream the butter with sugar until fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
Combine and sift all dry ingredients, then beat into the butter mixture.
Stir in dark chocolate chips and pecans. If you do not like dark chocolate or pecans, substitute with 8 ounces of semisweet chocolate chips.
Use a cookie scoop to place dough on cookie sheet about an inch apart.
Bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes. I use a convection oven, and they are done in 8 minutes.
Makes about 2 dozen cookies.
