These are chocolate cookies flecked with chocolate chips and candied pecans. I developed a test batch last week and brought them to work. My co-workers devoured all 25 cookies in less than an hour, and based on their feedback, this recipe was a real winner.My only complaint — I left the pecans whole, but next time I'll chop them instead. A few of the cookies didn't get any pecans in them, and I felt bad for the folks who missed out. The salty-sweet candied pecans were the best part of the cookie. Just look at that little pecan peekin' out:
Note to the testers: Speaking of cookbook recipes, I've posted a new tester recipe on the Cookin' Crunk tester blog.
Yum! I love the idea of putting candied pecans in cookies!
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing these aren't GF, they look too "normal" to be made with GF flour...sigh. But they sure look extremely tasty!!!! Chocolate cookies w/ choco chips and pecans, I mean you can't go wrong!
ReplyDeleteThese remind me of pralines which are my all-time favorite. So delish looking!

ReplyDeleteI'm a pecan lover, but I'll bite the bullet and be willing to take the pecanless cookies off your co-worker's hands! Ha ha!.... Also, your Granny is so sweet for helping to veganize desserts for you! Can't wait to see more dessert p0rn pics!! :D

Oh goodness, these cookies look heavenly! I'd say go with quality over quantity in the dessert section of your cookbook. ;)
