Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- ½ teaspoons Salt
- ¾ cups Butter, Softened
- ¾ cups Sugar
- ¾ cups Brown Sugar
- 2 Eggs Warmed To Room Temperature
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 1-½ cup Semisweet Chocolate Chips
- 1-½ cup Rolled Oats
- ¾ cups Chopped Pecans
- ½ cups Sweetened Coconut Flakes (optional)
Preparation
Preheat oven to 375°F. Cover baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a bowl whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
Using a mixer, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time and mix just until combined. Mix in vanilla and add flour mixture in 3 parts. Continue mixing until combined, scraping down the bowl and beaters as you go.
Stir in chocolate chips, rolled oats, chopped pecans and flaked coconut (optional). Drop by rounded 1 1/2 tablespoons onto parchment-covered baking sheets. Press down just a tad with the palm of your hand.
Bake until lightly browned, 9–11 minutes. Let cookies cool 5 minutes before moving them to cooling racks.
