Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In large mixing bowl, add and cream wet ingredients until well mixed.
- Gradually stir in dry ingredients.
- Add chocolate chips and pecans. Mix well.
- Place 1-inch balls on cookie sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes.
- I like to portion remaining dough on a cookie sheet, cover with plastic, and freeze. Then we have oven-ready cookies to bake on demand on a future day! Fresh, homemade cookies to serve HOT. Make only what your crowd will (or should) eat in one setting. Save the rest to serve later!
Recipe Notes
Note: One evening after returning home from a family vacation, my family expressed their “need” for cookies.
I agreed, “I will make my 5-minute cookies.”
To make it official, Daddy set the timer. My kids fetched the ingredients. I measured. They poured. And with the help of my dear friend, Mr. Mixer . . . Voila! Five-minute cookies were oven-ready.
Aside to Matthew and David: The Club Boys we ministered to when we lived on Belmont Street used to call me “Mrs. Shannon.”
