For the Cookie Dough
- 1 cup unsalted butter browned
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar packed

How to Make Browned Butter Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookies
Melt the unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, mix the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Pour the browned butter over the sugars and stir until well incorporated.
Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract into the sugar mixture until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix these dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
Fold in the toasted pecans and chocolate chips into the dough.
Chill the cookie dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets and bake for 10-12 minutes.
Allow the cookies to rest on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
Optional: Drizzle cookies with melted chocolate for garnish.
