Categories     dessert

Time 2h20m

Yield about 36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 1/4 sticks (10 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 large egg, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup dark chocolate chips
1 cup toasted pecans, roughly chopped
1 cup marshmallow creme, such as Marshmallow Fluff
Holiday sprinkles, for decorating (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • For the cookie dough: Whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder in a medium bowl.
  • Beat the brown sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in the egg until completely combined, then beat in the vanilla. Add the flour mixture and mix on low until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips with a wooden spoon.
  • For the filling: Stir in the pecans until just combined.
  • Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the dough and refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
  • Position oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line 3 baking sheets with parchment.
  • Drop heaping teaspoons of dough onto 2 of the prepared baking sheets, 12 per sheet. Refrigerate the remaining dough. Use your hands to roll the dough into balls, then space them out evenly on the baking sheets. Bake, rotating the baking sheets top to bottom and front to back halfway through cooking, until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the middle, about 10 minutes. Cool the cookies 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining cookie dough and baking sheet.
  • For the add-ins: Once all the cookies are cooled, spread 1 heaping teaspoon of marshmallow creme on top of one cookie, then sprinkle it with your favorite holiday sprinkles. Continue with the remaining cookies, creme and sprinkles, working one cookie at a time (the sprinkles adhere best if added immediately after spreading the creme).

I have been experimenting with different no-bake edible cookie dough and feel this is the best one so far. This is delicious and safe to eat since it is made without eggs. Other ingredients can be added, such as M&M'S®, toasted coconut, peanut butter chips, raisins ... The list can go on and on. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

½ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons butter, softened
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
1 ½ tablespoons milk
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon baking soda
⅛ teaspoon salt
1 ½ tablespoons chopped pecans
1 ½ tablespoons chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Combine brown sugar and butter in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Add flour, milk, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt; mix on medium speed until combined, about 2 minutes. Stir in pecans and chocolate chips.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the cookies will be. Use real butter, pure vanilla extract, and high-quality chocolate chips.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The cookies should be baked at a temperature of 350°F (175°C). If the oven is too hot, the cookies will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked. If the oven is too cool, the cookies will take too long to bake and will be dry.
  • Let the cookies cool completely: Before enjoying the cookies, let them cool completely on a wire rack. This will help them set and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

These milk chocolate chip pecan cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their chewy texture, rich chocolate flavor, and crunchy pecans, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're in the mood for a sweet snack, give these cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
