Jumbo Chocolate Chip Cookies
- 2 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 c. (2 sticks) unsalted butter or margarine (at room temperature)
- 2/3 c. smooth peanut butter
- 1 c. granulated sugar
- 1 c. packed light brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp. vanilla
- 1 (12 oz.) bag semi-sweet chocolate chunks or 1 (10 oz.) bag oversized semi-sweet chips
- 1 1/4 c. coarsely chopped pecans
- Heat oven to 325u0b0. Combine flour, baking soda and salt in bowl. Beat together the butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs and vanilla until blended. Stir in the flour mixture until blended and dough forms. Stir in the chocolate chunks or chocolate chips and chopped pecans. Using a 1/4-cup measure, drop dough by slightly rounded mounds onto large ungreased baking sheets, spacing the cookies about 2-inches apart. Bake in a 325u0b0 oven 15 to 17 minutes until golden brown around edges and lightly colored on top. Remove the baking sheets to a wire rack to cool for about 3 minutes. Remove the cookies with a metal spatula from the baking sheets to a wire rack and cool completely. Makes 24 cookies at 28 cents each. Prep: 20 minutes. Bake: at 325u0b0 for 15 to 17 minutes.
