The Recipe: Smokey Maple Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup butter (melted)
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups chocolate chips
  • 1 1/2 cups Sweet P’s Smokey Maple Candied Pecans (chopped)

Instructions:
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper—because sticking cookies are a tragedy.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. We’re laying the foundation for greatness here, so don’t skip this step.
  3. In a large bowl, mix the melted butter, brown sugar, and sugar until smooth and slightly fluffy. Add the maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract, and mix until everything’s nicely combined. This is where the magic starts.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. You want the dough to be smooth but not overworked. Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped Smokey Maple Candied Pecans. Try not to eat all the dough before it makes it to the oven. We know it’s tempting.
  5. Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie because they’re going to spread out into glorious, chewy rounds of deliciousness.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and your kitchen smells like pure heaven. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely—if you can wait that long.
  7. Pro Tip: For an extra gourmet touch, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of each cookie right before baking. The salt enhances the smoky flavor and pairs perfectly with the sweet chocolate.


These Smokey Maple Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookies are perfect for any occasion—from holiday gatherings to casual weekend treats. They’re also fantastic for gifting (if you can bring yourself to part with them). The combination of flavors in these cookies is truly something special, and we guarantee they’ll become a favorite in no time.
