How to Make Giant Chocolate Chunk Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ¾ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 teaspoons vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon almond extract until well combined.
- Add 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chunks and 1 cup chopped pecans.
- Drop by rounded ⅓ cupfuls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 3 inches between each cookie.
- Gently flatten each cookie to ½-inch thickness using wet hands.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
