Preheat your oven to 350F.

In your mixer, place the chilled butter and brown sugar, cream together. Mix in the molasses and the egg. Sift together your dry ingredients in a separate bowl. In two parts, mix in the flour until just incorporated. Using a wooden spoon, stir in dates, raisins and pecans. Don’t over mix.

Place the dough into the fridge. Let chill slightly (for about 1/2 hour).

Line two cookie sheets, using parchment or Silpat. After your dough has chilled, roll the dough into balls about the size of a gold ball. Then, press down slightly on the ball with a flat bottomed glass (or just your fingers), slightly moistened. This will keep the dough from sticking.

One sheet at a time, bake your cookies. They will take between 10-12 minutes. You want them just slightly brown along the edges, but not on top. The bottoms should be a nice golden brown. The cookies will be slightly underdone, but this is what gives them their soft chewiness.

Enjoy!
