Ingredients

• Chocolate Cookie
• 2 sticks butter, softened
• 1 cup light brown sugar
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs, beaten

Directions

• Prepare Pecan Cookie Filling.
• Add butter, pecans, brown sugar, corn syrup, salt and beaten eggs to a medium non-stick pan. Cook over medium-high heat until it becomes thickened. Do not overcook, you want it the same consistency as pudding. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a stand mixer or large bowl using a hand mixer, blend the butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vanilla and eggs. In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Gradually add the flour mixture into the butter mixture and blend until combined.
• Drop the dough by tablespoonful onto the prepared baking sheets, 12 cookies per sheet, and bake 8 minutes. Remove from oven and top cookies with approximately 1 tablespoon of pecan cookie filling on the center of each cookie. Place back in oven and cook for another 4 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool on baking sheet. Repeat with remaining doing and pecan cookie filling.
