Triple Chocolate Pecan Cookies

The only thing better than chocolate is triple the chocolate.  This cookie is for the chocolate lover in your life. Semi sweet, bittersweet and white chocolate galore!!! You will love this cookie.

The recipe said to put three pecan halves on top but I made my cookies smaller and just added one.  I probably won't even add one to the tops of the cookies in the freezer when I bake them.  The cookie is fine without the extra pecan.

To get all that chocolate you use baking bars.

Start with 2 sticks of slightly firm butter.  Normally you have it softened but this time you do not.

3/4 cup sugar

3/4 cup brown sugar.  Mix that well with the butter.  You will have to work a little harder because the butter is not soft.

Add two eggs

1 teaspoon baking soda

Mix, mix mix

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

3/4 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons vanilla

2 2/3 cup all purpose flour

Now to finely chop those chocolate bars.  4 oz each of semi sweet, bittersweet, and white chocolate.

Then mix, mix, mix.

Scoop the dough onto a parchment lined cookie sheet.  Press the pecan or pecans into the top if you want to add them. Place in a 375 preheated oven.  Bake for 8-10 minutes.  Let cool on baking sheet for 4-5 minutes.

These are going into the freezer.

These are for enjoying now.
