Mean Chef's Oatmeal Pecan Chocolate Chunk Cookies image

Amazingly soft, delicious cookies! When I made this, I used Ghirardelli chocolate and was just short on the called-for amount of pecans. The dough was really hard after refrigerating overnight, and I found it easier to roll it into balls by hand rather than the ice cream scoop. I adopted this recipe after its original poster, Mean Chef, departed the site. Mean posted the recipe on Feb 12, 2003.

I've tried many oatmeal cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are chewy and flavorful, and the pecans and chocolate chips add a nice touch.

These cookies are a little too sweet for my taste, but they're still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I substituted walnuts for pecans and they turned out great! I also added a little bit of cinnamon.
