Stop what you're doing right now. Yes, it's one of those recipes. One of those get-in-to-your-kitchen-right-now-and-bake-these recipes.
I'm really struggling to adequately describe these. Fudgy yet crispy, dark yet light, rich yet airy. By the way, your mixture should be mixed by now, yes? Yes. Enjoy!
Story time! I've been doing a lot of baking for charity lately, so when my dad walked in the other day and saw these cookies all prettily laid out, he said that he assumed they were for a charity bake sale and nabbed one. I was out shopping at the time, and he actually called me up to tell me how delicious they were. All right, he also wanted some more beer, but still. This is coming from a McDonald's loving, Starbucks-card-holding, gluten-craving grown man. Baby steps.
Oh yeah, there's a reason the recipe makes thirty-six cookies. The nutrition bumf? 83 calories, 7g of fat per cookie with the pretty pecan half, 56 calories, 4g fat without it. That's a bargain if you ask me!
