  7. Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped pecans until evenly distributed.
  8. Scoop the dough into 2 tablespoon balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are lightly golden.
  10. Allow the cookies to cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a rack to cool completely.

Notes

For even cookies, chill the dough 15 minutes before scooping. Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
