MEAN CHEF'S OATMEAL PECAN CHOCOLATE CHUNK COOKIES

Mean Chef's Oatmeal Pecan Chocolate Chunk Cookies image

Amazingly soft, delicious cookies! When I made this, I used Ghirardelli chocolate and was just short on the called-for amount of pecans. The dough was really hard after refrigerating overnight, and I found it easier to roll it into balls by hand rather than the ice cream scoop. I adopted this recipe after its original poster, Mean Chef, departed the site. Mean posted the recipe on Feb 12, 2003.
