How to Make Radical Rob's Chocolate Chip Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (200g) packed light brown sugar and ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter in the microwave. Add to the sugar mixture.
  4. Beat until well combined.
  5. Add 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. The dough will be stiff. Do not overmix!
  8. Stir in 2 cups (240g) chocolate chips and 1 cup (100g) toasted pecans (or almonds).
  9. Mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent tough cookies.
  10. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  11. Use a small cookie scoop (about 1.5 tablespoons) to drop dough onto the prepared sheets, leaving plenty of space between cookies (they spread!).
  12. Gently flatten the dough slightly with your hand.
  13. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges and tops are lightly golden brown.
  14. Let cool on wire racks before serving.
