Step 3

Step 4

4. Add dissolved baking soda.

Step 5

Step 6

6. Add all chocolate chips and pecans, if desired, with a wooden spoon.

Step 8

Step 9

9. Before baking, make sure the dough is at room temperature. Scoop dough onto baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between scoops, 5 minutes before baking.

Step 10

10. For small cookies, bake for 10 minutes, or until lightly golden around edges. For larger cookies, bake for 13 to 15 minutes. If you touch the top of the cookie and it bounces back instead of indenting, that means it’s ready. Every oven is different.
