Chocolate Chunk Cookies With Pecans Dried Apricots image

My friend Cheryl, passed this recipe to me. The cookies came out DEVINE! I make them without the cherries, but I am sure they would be great with them too! I also lined the cookie sheet with parchments paper to avoid too much spreading. When I make these cookies I let the dough chill for about 45 minutes. Make sure if you opt for white chocolate you use fine quality white chocolate, because it does make a difference!! I also used a small scoop to drop the cookies on the baking sheet.

Yield 34 cookies, 34 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs

1 cup coarsely chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
