How to Make Deluxe Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup Crisco shortening and 1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs, 1/4 teaspoon hot sauce (like Tabasco), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 2 cups chocolate chips and 1 cup chopped pecans.
  7. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 2-3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
