Description

Chewy chocolate cookies filled with caramel, pecans and more chocolate!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Butter, Softened
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar
  • ¾ cups Granulated Sugar
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 2 Tablespoons Milk
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 2-¼ cups All-purpose Flour
  • ½ cups Dark Chocolate Dutch Cocoa Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • 1 cup Caramel Bits
  • 1 cup Chopped Pecans, Divided
  • ½ cups Semi-sweet Chocolate Morsels, Melted

Preparation

In a large bowl beat butter and sugars for 3 minutes until well combined. Add eggs, milk and vanilla and combine. Beat in flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Fold in caramel bits and 3/4 cup of chopped pecans.

Chill dough in the refrigerator for one hour.

Preheat oven to 375 F. Scoop chilled dough, by large tablespoon, onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake at 375 F for 10-12 minutes. Then remove from the oven and allow to cool on pan for 2 minutes. Then remove cookies from the pan to a wire rack.

Drizzle cookies with the melted semi-sweet chocolate and immediately sprinkle with remaining chopped pecans.

Enjoy warm for a fudgy, chewy cookie. Or allow to cool completely for a more stiff, rich and chocolatey cookie!
