Giant Chewy Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies are a favorite in our house! Perfectly chewy, giant cookies studded with chocolate and pecans!
Chocolate chip cookies are a staple, a standard, a classic, everyone has their own version, their own family recipe. Cookies usually are not my favorite dessert. In order for me to love a cookie, it has to be chewy and soft; no hard, crispy or crunchy cookies for this girl! So I have my tried and true chocolate chip cookie recipe that I use all the time. I can change the flavor of the chips, add nuts or candies, but the base is always the same. It is the only chocolate chip cookie recipe I use because it yields deliciously chewy, perfect-every-time cookies! My kids (and husband) love my cookies, and I make sure to keep a jar of them on the counter when I can because they go through them so fast, I’m lucky if I get one lol!
You too can make the best ever chocolate chip cookies using my secret ingredient…
Karo® Corn Syrup is the secret ingredient to make the best chewy cookies that taste amazing! You can even add Karo® Corn Syrup to your old family recipe to transform that cookie into an even more delicious chewy cookie! That’s right! That classic Karo® Corn Syrup usually associated with Thanksgiving Pecan Pie is the best kept secret for perfect cookies!
Now, Karo® Corn Syrup has long been a staple in my kitchen, as my grandma always taught me to keep a bottle in the pantry. She uses the dark Karo® Corn Syrup on her pancakes in place of syrup and always has!
So branch out beyond just pecan pie and try some Karo® Corn Syrup in your cookies and you will be surprised what an amazing difference it makes! Now, I was saying earlier that this is my basic chocolate chip cookie recipe, but today, I am making a variation by adding pecans and making them giant size. Then you can say you’re only going to have one cookie ;)
These Giant Chewy Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies come out perfect every time and are amazing with a glass of milk.
So next time you are out, pick up a bottle of Karo® Corn Syrup and add it to your favorite cookie recipe, and you will have the chewiest, most delicious cookies ever!
