Have I told you guys that I like to bake? Actually, I LOVE to bake. Once upon a time a younger, more risk taking version of myself started a cupcake business. I did several weddings, large events and small orders as well! It was fun at first. Then my nerves got shot. Trying to bake hundreds of cupcakes by yourself, packaging and delivering them can be quite scary! Not to mention doing it all while being a stay at home Mom to very small children. My husband was a great help and encourager during those days. But eventually, I just wore out. I didn’t want to bake for a business anymore. I wanted to bake for fun! So I spent many afternoons in the kitchen developing recipes. These delicious cookies are from one of those times.
They are buttery, chewy, with just the right amount of sweetness. Okay lets get started!
The ingredients are simple. Just a little flour, sugar, butter, egg, and plenty of white chocolate chips and pecans!
Drop that delicious dough by the spoonful onto a cookie sheet and bake away!
Little bits of heaven!
They have the perfect texture! The pecans add a nice crunch.
Let me know if you bake these. I hope you enjoy them as much as my family and I do!
