These chocolate chip pecan cookies are soft, chewy, and packed with flavor.  The combination of semi-sweet chocolate, white chocolate, and pecans makes these gluten free Double Chocolate Pecan Chip Cookies a must-bake!

One thing I love to do when making cookies is change up the ingredients.   A basic chocolate chip cookie is hard to beat, but try a couple different chip flavors, throw in some nuts, and you might have a new favorite cookie recipe.

If you’re not a fan of nuts or chocolate, you’ll want to try these Lemon Cookies with Lemon Glaze or Toasted Coconut Butterscotch Oatmeal Cookies.  Both recipes are easy to make and completely free of nuts and chocolate.

When it comes to chocolate, I usually prefer dark, but this time I used a combination of white and semi-sweet chips.  I also threw in some pecan chips to add a little crunch.

How to Make Double Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies - Step by Step

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Line baking sheets with silicone liners or parchment paper.

In a small mixing bowl, combine the flour, unsweetened cocoa, baking soda, and salt.  Whisk together until combined (photos 1 & 2).

Process steps 1-3 for making Double Chocolate Pecan Chip Cookies

Using an electric mixer, beat the butter, sugars, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl until creamy (photos 3 & 4).

Add eggs, one at a time, to the butter and sugar mixture, and stir until combined (photo 5).  Gradually add the flour mixture to the sugar mixture and stir until combined (photo 6).

Process steps 4-6 for making Double Chocolate Pecan Chip Cookies

Stir white chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate, and pecan chips into the cookie dough (photo 7).

Drop the dough by 1.5-tablespoon portions, 2 inches apart, on the prepared pans (photo 8).

Bake 9 to 11 minutes, or until the cookies are set (photo 9).

Process steps 7-9 for making Double Chocolate Pecan Chip Cookies 

Allow cookies to cool on the pan for 5 minutes.  Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips for Making Double Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies

  • Check your gluten free flour mix for xanthan gum.  If the mix doesn’t contain xanthan gum, try adding ½ teaspoon to the recipe.  I used Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free 1 to 1 Baking Flour which has xanthan gum in it.
  • Use a 1.5-tablespoon scoop to drop the dough on the prepared pans.  The scoop allows you to use the same amount of dough for each cookie.  When the cookie dough balls are equal in size, they bake more evenly.
  • Since the cookie dough is dark, you won’t be able to tell if the cookies are done based on their color.  Instead you want to bake the cookies until they are “set”.  The edges of the cookies will be slightly firm and the tops should look dry.

The cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to 1 week.  They can also be frozen, in a freezer safe container, for up to 2 months.

If you have a chocolate craving, give these chocolate chip pecan cookies a try.  I hope you enjoy them as much as we do.  Happy Baking!
