Irresistible Christmas Treat Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Beat the softened butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add vanilla extract and mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, beating until dough forms.
- Fold in chocolate chips and pecans, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Scoop 1-inch dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are lightly golden. Cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
- Once fully cooled, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
