Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
-
In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well to combine.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until just incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
-
Stir in the chocolate chips and chopped pecans, if using. The pecans add a delightful crunch to the cookies, but feel free to omit them if you prefer.
-
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft.
-
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Serve these Paula Deen Gooey Cookies warm with a glass of cold milk for the ultimate indulgence, or pack them in a tin to share with friends and family.
