Ingredients
  

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

3/4 cup brown sugar, packed

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup pecans, toasted and coarsely chopped

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

Sea salt (for sprinkling on top)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

      Add Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.

        Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using).

          Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.

            Add Pecans: Fold in the toasted pecans, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

              Scoop Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie to allow for spreading.

                Sprinkle Sea Salt: Lightly sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt on top of each cookie dough ball.

                  Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden but the centers are still soft.

                    Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
