Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A good semisweet or bittersweet chocolate will work well.
  • Toast the pecans before using them to enhance their flavor.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just set and the centers are still slightly soft. This will give you a chewy cookie with a gooey center.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape and prevent them from becoming too soft.
