Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 48m

Yield 12 to 24 depending on size

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
11 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into cubes
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons instant espresso powder
3 large eggs
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
12 ounces (about 2 cups) chocolate chips
1 3/4 cups chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Position 1 rack in the top 1/3 and another in the bottom 1/3 of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt into a medium bowl and set aside. Melt the chocolate and butter in the top of a double boiler over hot, simmering water. Remove from the heat but keep the chocolate mixture over a bowl of hot water to ensure that the mixture does not set.
  • In a small bowl, combine the vanilla extract and the espresso powder and whisk until the espresso powder is dissolved. Stir the espresso mixture into the chocolate mixture.
  • Combine the eggs and both sugars in the 4 1/2 quart bowl of a heavy-duty electric mixer. Set the bowl over a pan of hot, hot simmering water. Stir with a hand-held wire whisk until warm to the touch. Attach the bowl to the mixer stand. Using the wire whip attachment, whip the mixture on high speed until pale, thickened and cool, about 5 minutes. Fold into the warm chocolate mixture. Fold in the flour. Stir in the chocolate chips and pecans.
  • Drop the dough by rounded tablespoons onto the 2 prepared pans leaving about 1 to1/2 inches between the cookies. Bake for 12 to14 minutes or until the cookies are set: switch the positions of the baking sheets halfway through the baking time for even baking.
  • Cool the cookies on the baking sheets on wire racks for about 3 minutes, then transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining dough.

RITA'S ULTRA-LITE PECAN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 1h5m

Yield 32 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 egg whites, room temperature
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup sugar
12 ounces mini chocolate chips
1 cup pecans, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.
  • In a mixer on medium-low speed, beat the egg whites until frothy, about 2 minutes. Increase the mixer speed to high, add salt and whip to stiff, but not dry peaks. Reduce the speed to medium. Add the vanilla and then the sugar, a few tablespoons at a time. Whip to glossy peaks, about 2 minutes. Gently fold in the chocolate chips and the pecans. Drop by the tablespoon onto cookie sheets lined with parchment. Bake 45 minutes. Turn oven off and leave in oven overnight without opening the oven door.
  • Tip: To reduce calories further, you can scale back on the sugar, chocolate chips, and pecans. I recommend making them the first time with the full amount of sugar to get a feel for how much you want to cut back.

CHEWY TOFFEE PECAN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Chewy Toffee Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookies image

Absolutely the best cookies ever! I made enough to fill two gallon-size plastic bags and they were gone within a day. This recipe was a runner-up in a contest that was in the Paula Deen magazine. (Her recipe says this makes three dozen, but I came out with about eight dozen) I used chocolate covered toffee bits instead of the plain toffee bits and it was fantastic so don't worry if you can't find the plain ones. The cooking time is cumulative for all batches (and is approximate).

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h

Yield 75-85 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup chopped pecans
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup all-vegetable shortening
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup molasses
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups semisweet chocolate morsels
1 (8 ounce) bag toffee pieces
1 cup turbinado sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In the work bowl of a food processor, add flour, pecans, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt: process until nuts are finely ground into flour.
  • In a large bowl, beat butter, shortening, white and dark brown sugars at medium-high speed with an electric mixer until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  • Add molasses, eggs, and vanilla; beat on low speed just until blended.
  • Gradually add flour mixture, beathing just until dough forms.
  • Stir in chocolate morsels and toffee bits.
  • Roll dough into 1-inch balls; then roll balls in turbinado sugar. Do not flatten. NOTE: You may need more turbinado sugar - just use more if you need more. I ended up with probably closer to 2 cups.
  • Place 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets. Bake 10-12 minutes, or until lightly browned and slightly flattened.
  • Let cool on pans for 15 minutes. Remove from pans, and cool completely on wire racks.
  • NOTE: you may find it useful to rinse and dry hands every so often, as that helps the dough roll into a ball more easily.
