Pecan Pie Topping

  • 1/4 cup Brown sugar packed
  • 2 tbsp Unsalted butter melted
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Chopped pecans

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric mixer
  • Baking sheets
  • Parchment paper
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Small saucepan

Method
 

Cookie Base
  1. Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl; set aside.
  2. Cream softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  5. Chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes.
Baking and Topping
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Scoop chilled dough into 12 large balls, placing them a few inches apart on the prepared sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are set but centers are still soft.
  3. While cookies bake, combine corn syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, and vanilla in a small saucepan over medium heat; bring to a simmer. Stir in chopped pecans.
  4. Remove cookies from oven and immediately make an indentation in the center of each cookie using the back of a spoon.
  5. Spoon the pecan pie topping into the indentations of each warm cookie. Let cookies cool completely on the baking sheet to allow the topping to set.

Notes

Ensure all ingredients for the cookie base are at room temperature for the best consistency. Do not overbake the cookies to keep them soft and chewy.
