Chewy Pecan Supreme Cookies Ingredients

• 1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup (200g) brown sugar, packed
• ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 2¼ cups (280g) all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 112 cups (170g) chopped pecans (lightly toasted for extra taste (optional))

Chewy Pecan Supreme Cookies Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper / silicone baking mats.
2. Cream the butter and sugars In a large mixing bowl beat the softened butter with the brown sugar and granulated sugar on medium high speed for 2 to 3 minutes, then until light and fluffy (this is where it really makes the difference to get that chewy texture).
3. Add the eggs and vanilla In the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla. Basically consistency should be creamy and smooth, like Luna calls me cookie cloud dough when she hands me the mixer.
4. Combine the dry ingredients Separately mix the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon in a separate bowl. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet mix. Mix just until everything is combined (don’t over mix).
5. Fold in the pecans Mix in the chopped pecans with a spoon. If you toasted them in advance that warm nuttier aroma will be filling your kitchen about now.
6. Scoop the dough Place spoonfuls ( roughly 112 tablespoons / scoop ) of dough on your prepared baking sheets with a little space between each.
7. Bake for 10–12 minutes Bake until the edges are golden and the centers just set. They may look a little soft — that ‘s because you ‘ll know they ‘re going to stay chewy!
8. Cool and enjoy Cool on the pan for 5 mins, and then transfer to wire rack to cool… When they are still slightly warm they ” work “… that is when they really do.

Recipe tips

• Toast the Pecans for Extra Depth: It allows the oils in the nuts to be reacted more fully and then allows the nuts to become warmer in texture. Simply spread on a baking sheet and roast at 350°F (175°C) for 5–7 minutes (while being careful not to burn them).
• Use Room-Temperature Ingredients: Always be sure the butter and eggs are room temperature. It allows the ingredients to mix together more evenly and makes the dough less lumpy and chewy.
• Don’t Overmix the Dough: Once you add the dry ingredients mix only until everything is combined. Eating cookies that are over mixed will make them tough not tender.

How To Store Chewy Pecan Supreme Cookies

Refrigerate: Remove the Chewy Pecan Supreme Cookies from the refrigerator and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack. Then place them in an airtight container (if necessary, use parchment paper to separate cookies and store in refrigerated containers).

Freeze: For more prolonged storage, freeze. Once fully cooled, spread them out in one layer on a baking sheet and freeze for 1 hour. Then take them out of the freezer and put them into a freezer-safe bag or airtight container. You can freeze them up to 2 months. When ready to eat, thaw them at room temperature or microwave them a little (for the best fresh out of the oven flavor).

How To Reheat Leftover Chewy Pecan Supreme Cookies

In The Oven: Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Place the remaining cookies on a baking sheet and wrap loosely with aluminum foil (to stop them from browning too much) Reheat for about 5–7 minutes, or until they’re warm and slightly soft at the center.

In The Microwave: Place a few cookies on a microwave-safe plate. Cover them lightly with a damp paper towel to keep them moist. Heat on medium power for 10–15 seconds. Let cool a few seconds before eating.

In The Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 300°F (150°C). Place in basket with lined in parchment paper/foil. Heat for 2–4 minutes (check once to avoid burning).

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use walnuts instead of pecans?

Yes you can! Walnuts are fine too, if you don’t have pecans, although they’ll taste just a bit more robust and slightly more bitter. Clara says, “Just do what you have—cookies are forgiving! ”

Why are my cookies coming out flat?

If your butter was too soft or you did n’t chill the dough, you might end up with excessively spread cookies. You could try chilling the dough 30 mins before baking in order to keep them from spreading.

Can I make the dough ahead of time?

Yes. Yes you can keep the dough in the fridge up to 48 hours. Just cover it well and let it sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before you scoop and bake.
