perfect picture: Sometimes I get people asking how I make my cookies look like they came from a bakery.The answer is super simple

Ingredient Tips and Variations

nut: These pecans are deliciously nutty and crunchy. If you don’t like pecans, you can use chopped walnuts or even almonds. Another option to deepen the flavor is to roast them first.

• To bake: Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread nuts on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 5-10 minutes, turning them halfway through.

oat: You can use rolled oats or instant oats in recipes, but stay away from steel cut oats.

addition: I will never share a recipe that I am less than satisfied with, I love the results. However, I also know it’s fun to change every once in a while, and you might even stumble upon something you like. Here are some variations you might want to try:

• Chips: Trade the Chocolate Enemy for White Chocolate, Butterscotch, or Peanut Butter Chips.
• Add toffee bits
• Mini Reese Sheets or Mini M&Ms
• Chewier: For chewier cookies, omit the white sugar and use 1 ¾ c brown sugar.

storage tips

shop Chilled cookies keep in an airtight container for 4-5 days. Putting a loaf of white bread in the container as well will help keep the cookies softer.

you can also freeze Bake cookies. I like to put each cookie in a collapsible sandwich bag and put them all together in the Ziploc in the fridge. They will last up to 3 months.

you can easily freeze cookies Bake later. Dough can be kept for 3 months. Thaw before baking.

• log format: Roll out the dough into 1 or 2 logs. Wrap the logs in plastic wrap, then foil. Tag and freeze.
• Dough Balls: Shape the dough into balls and place on a tray. Put them in the refrigerator until they are all firm. Then, transfer them to freezer-safe storage containers.
