This time of year is definitely cookie-baking season, and these Brown Sugar Pecan Cookies with Chocolate Chips are a nice sweet treat all winter long! You can always omit the chocolate chips if you prefer just the brown sugar-and-pecan flavor, but if you’re a chocolate-lover like me, you’ll probably prefer these with chocolate chips!
These cookies are thick, soft, and chewy. The brown sugar gives them a rich flavor and there are chopped pecans in the batter too, in addition to a pecan half on the top of each cookie. And the chocolate chips give these cookies a nice little touch of chocolate flavor!
Hope you enjoy these yummy cookies! :)
