Description

Delightful cookies with oats, chocolate chips, and pecans that offer rich flavor and satisfying chewiness. Perfect for parties or enjoying at home.

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream together the softened butter and both types of sugar for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy, scraping the bowl as needed.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix in the vanilla extract.
Whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in another bowl. Gradually add this to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in oats, chocolate chips, and chopped pecans until evenly mixed.
Drop dough by tablespoonfuls onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden and centers look slightly underdone.
Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze with parchment paper in a freezer-safe container.
