Adapted from here.
Servings 30 large cookies
Author Brandon Matzek

Ingredients

  • 3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon fine grain sea salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup vegetable shortening
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 3/4 cups firmly packed brown sugar
  • 3 eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon good vanilla extract
  • 12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 3 ounces bittersweet chocolate squares, chopped
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling

Instructions

  • Preheat an oven to 375°F, and set an oven rack in the middle position. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
  • Add the butter and shortening to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat at medium speed until creamy, then gradually add the sugars, beating until fluffy (3 - 4 minutes more). Beat in the eggs and vanilla until fully incorporated. In 3 additions, beat in the flour mixture until just incorporated (start the mixer slow, then increase to medium speed each time). Don't overmix here. Stir in chocolate chips and chopped pecans.
  • Using a 1/4 measuring cup, drop cookie dough on the prepared baking sheet at least 3-inches apart (I like to do 6 per sheet). Sprinkle each mound of dough with a little flaky sea salt. Working in batches, bake until the cookies are lightly golden brown (11 - 13 minutes). Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
