Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Butter Pecan Cookies
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Blend with a hand mixer on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Add the large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Pour in the vanilla extract and blend until smooth and evenly combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cinnamon powder, cornstarch, baking soda, and baking powder. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just incorporated.
- Gently fold in the chopped toasted pecans and toffee bits ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30-45 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Use a cookie scoop to portion out the dough, rolling each piece into a ball. Place the cookie balls on the prepared tray, spaced about 2 inches apart.
- Bake the cookies for 11-14 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers appear puffy.
