1. Toast the pecans for 2 - 3 minutes in 400ºF oven to bring out their nutty flavor and give them a crispy texture. (I use my air fryer oven.) Watch closely and shake the pan after each minute to prevent burning. Once cooled, finely chop.

2. Cream the butter with an electric mixer until it has a light, fluffy texture, and has lightened in color before adding in both sugars, one at a time. Mix until smooth and creamy. Achieving a soft cream is essential.

3. Add both eggs, one at a time, mixing very well after each addition. Then add then vanilla extract and mix to combine.

4. Sift together the dry ingredients (flour, salt, baking soda, and ground ginger) in a separate bowl. Then add them into the wet ingredients in 2 - 3 batches, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl between additions. Once mixed, fold in chopped toasted pecans.

5. Using a 1 ounce cookie scoop, scoop cookies, shape into a ball, then place onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment. The cookies can be crowded onto the pan, but make sure they aren't touching. Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours. The chilling process is key to the flavor and chewiness of the cookies. If possible, refrigerate it overnight.

6. Preheat the oven to 350ºF and prepare two baking trays by lightly greasing with butter or lining with parchment paper. Transfer the chilled cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking tray, leaving 2 inches in between them. Use a flat bottom glass to gently flatten the cookies.

1. Toast the pecans for 2 - 3 minutes in 400ºF oven to bring out their nutty flavor and give them a crispy texture. (I use my air fryer oven.) Watch closely and shake the pan after each minute to prevent burning. Once cooled, finely chop.

2. Cream the butter with an electric mixer until it has a light, fluffy texture, and has lightened in color before adding in both sugars, one at a time. Mix until smooth and creamy. Achieving a soft cream is essential.

3. Add both eggs, one at a time, mixing very well after each addition. Then add then vanilla extract and mix to combine.

4. Sift together the dry ingredients (flour, salt, baking soda, and ground ginger) in a separate bowl. Then add them into the wet ingredients in 2 - 3 batches, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl between additions. Once mixed, fold in chopped toasted pecans.

6. Preheat the oven to 350ºF and prepare two baking trays by lightly greasing with butter or lining with parchment paper. Transfer the chilled cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking tray, leaving 2 inches in between them. Use a flat bottom glass to gently flatten the cookies.

7. Bake the cookies for 13 to 16 minutes, or until edges are set and lightly golden.* Once baked, transfer cookies to a cooling rack and allow to cool completely to set up.
