How to Make Colorado Cowboy Cookies
- Position two oven racks to divide the oven into thirds.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line two baking sheets with foil.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl of an electric mixer, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter until light and fluffy.
- Add 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup packed brown sugar; beat until well combined.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients on low speed, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Remove bowl from mixer. Stir in 3 cups rolled oats, 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, and 1 cup chopped pecans (or walnuts).
- Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 16-18 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Rotate baking sheets halfway through baking for even browning.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
