All these new (to me!) blogs led me to mark so many recipes I have to try.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">The truth is that even though I follow hundreds (if not thousands) of food blogs around the globe, every time I discover a new and interesting recipe on a blog that catches my eyes &#8211; it excites me in so many levels.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">So it was with this following recipe, which I found on the beautiful and mouth-watering <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fitmittenkitchen.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fit Mitten Kitchen<\/a><\/strong> blog. I saw a picture of these cookies on Instagram, and almost automatically went to bake them a second later. The photograph got me drooling that I simply could not help myself!<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">These chocolate chip cookies are originally made with salted almonds, but I decided to use pecans instead. These cookies have crispy texture on the outside, yet are a little soft and chewy on the inside. The combination of the large chocolate chunks, the pecans and salt creates a cookie that is no less than wonderful.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although there are thousands of recipes for chocolate chip cookies, these cookies are really special &#8211; also because of the combination of flavors, and also because the chocolate comes in large chunks, leaving huge chocolate pieces that dissolve in your mouth in each and every bite.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">These chocolate chunk cookies will be perfect for the weekend, as a small gift in the upcoming holiday season, and even if you just want to enjoy a really good chocolate cookie.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_18117\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18117\" class=\"wp-image-18117\" title=\"Salted Pecans Chocolate Chunk Cookies\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lilcookie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/salted_pecans_chocolate_chunk_cookies4-s.jpg\" alt=\"Salted Pecans Chocolate Chunk Cookies\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-18117\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Natalie Levin<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6091382327871787\" data-ad-slot=\"7832461759\" data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<h4 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Salted Pecans Chocolate Chunk Cookies<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Recipe adapted from <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fitmittenkitchen.com\/salted-dark-chocolate-chunk-almond-cookies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fit Mitten Kitchen<\/a><\/strong> with little adjustments.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Makes 24 cookies<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><u>Ingredients:<br \/>\n<\/u>120 grams soft butter<br \/>\n50 grams coconut oil<br \/>\n150 grams (3\/4 cup) light brown sugar<br \/>\n50 grams (1\/4 cup) sugar<br \/>\n1\/2 tsp. salt<br \/>\n1 tsp. vanilla extract<br \/>\n1 large egg<br \/>\n120 grams (1 cup) whole wheat flour<br \/>\n140 grams (1 cup) all-purpose flour<br \/>\n1 tsp. baking soda<br \/>\n150 grams dark chocolate, coarsely chopped<br \/>\n100 grams roasted pecans, coarsely chopped<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><u>For decoration:<br \/>\n<\/u>Some sea salt<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_18116\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18116\" class=\"wp-image-18116\" title=\"Salted Pecans Chocolate Chunk Cookies\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lilcookie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/salted_pecans_chocolate_chunk_cookies3-s.jpg\" alt=\"Salted Pecans Chocolate Chunk Cookies\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-18116\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Natalie Levin<\/p><\/div>\n<h4 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Preparation:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Preheat the oven to 180c degrees and line baking trays with baking paper.<\/li>\n<li>In a mixer bowl with a paddle attachment, put butter, coconut oil, light brown sugar, sugar, salt and vanilla and mix at high speed for 3-4 minutes or until a soft creamy mixture is obtained.<\/li>\n<li>Scrape the mixture from the sides of the bowl using a spatula and add in the egg.
