Serving Size: 36
Cooking Time: 18 minutes
Ingredients
- 0.75 Cups (cup) butter, softened
- 0.5 Cups (cup) light brown sugar, packed
- 1 Whole egg
- 1 Teaspoon (tsp) vanilla extract
- 1.5 Cups (cup) rolled oats
- 1 Cup (cup) all-purpose flour, sifted
- 0.5 Teaspoons (tsp) baking soda
- 0.25 Teaspoons (tsp) salt
- 0.5 Cups (cup) pecans, chopped
- 2 Cups (cup) chocolate-covered toffee baking bits
Steps
- Preheat your oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line cookie sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
- In a medium bowl, cream together the softened butter and packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy. This step is crucial for achieving the perfect cookie texture.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture, stirring until smooth and well combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the creamed mixture until just combined.
- Fold in the rolled oats, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Gently mix in the chopped pecans and chocolate-covered toffee bits, taking care not to overwork the dough.
- Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared cookie sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 18 minutes, or until the cookies have a dry appearance and are lightly golden around the edges.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help them set and maintain their chewy texture.
