- 1 cup of firmly packed golden brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons of pure vanilla extract
- 3 cups of all-purpose flour

- 1 teaspoon of kosher salt
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips plus more for topping
- 1 cup of mini semi sweet chocolate chips plus more for topping
- 1 cup chopped pecans plus more for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9x13 baking pan with foil, leave some overhang to make removal easier. Spray foil generously with nonstick cooking spray.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until fluffy. Add in eggs and vanilla extract and continue to beat. Lower speed of mixer and add flour, baking soda and salt and mix until combined. Add chocolate chips, mini chocolate chips, and pecans to cookie dough and give a final stir.
- Transfer cookie dough to prepared baking dish. Press additional chocolate chips, mini chocolate chips and pecans into top of cookie bars. Bake between 35 - 40 minutes. Do not over bake. Edges should be golden brown and center should be just set and not jiggly. Cookie bars will continue to bake as they cool. Let cool completely, use foil to lift bars out of pan and cut into squares.
