Description
I don’t know anybody who dislikes Chocolate Chips Cookies, and it is a crowd-pleaser for sure, especially among the little ones. I’ve tried different recipes of chocolate chip cookies, but these extra chewy cookies are the perfect combination between the moisture inside and the crispy crust.
Ingredients

Scale
- 1 cup of unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup of sugar
- 3/4 cup of brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- the juice of 1/2 lemon
- 2 1/4 cup flour
- 1/2 cup of oats
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 3/4 cup chocolate chips
- 1 3/4 cup pecans, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven at 180°C or 170°C for a convection oven. Prepare two baking trays with parchment paper.
- Dry ingredients: Sift in a bowl the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Add the oats and set them aside.
- Mix: Cream the butter and sugars with a mixer. Add the eggs one by one, beating after each addition. Pour the vanilla and lemon into the mixture. Finally, add the dry ingredients (from the previous step). Mix well. When everything is a homogeneous dough, add the chocolate chips and chopped pecans. Scoop the dough into the baking trays leaving a 2cm space between them. They will raise and spread in the oven.
- Bake both trays for 15 minutes, changing places in the middle of the cooking to ensure that they will cook evenly. To know when they are ready is when you see the bottom is golden brown. Let the cool down for 15 minutes.
