These golden, thick and chewy Bakery-Style Milk Chocolate Chip Toffee Pecan Cookies are the ultimate cookies! Loaded with buttery toffee bits, milk chocolate chips and crunchy pecans, these cookies are soft on the inside and a little crispy on the outside.
We just can't think of a better combination when you want to impress your discriminating taste-buds!
Milk Chocolate is the mellow, velvety, smooth chocolate! YUM!
While milk chocolate and dark chocolate both use cocoa liquor, cocoa butter and sugar, milk chocolate also uses milk powder, to give its creamier taste, texture, and lighter color. No bitterness, just pure chocolate heaven and it goes great with toffee!

These cookies are great to bake, when you don't want to wait for the butter or eggs to come to room temperature and this recipe makes 18 large cookies using about 3 tablespoons of cookie dough per cookie.
No chilling, unless you want. Chilling will always make your cookies thicker though and you may have to bake a few more minutes.
If you are chilling, you should go ahead an scoop your dough balls before they go in the fridge or freezer. Because if you don't, it's super hard to scoop because the dough is so firm, unless you want dough to start to come to room temperature. I think it's just easier to do it all in one shot in the beginning and minimize extra work.
BTW, you can make them smaller, depending what you baking them for and size you like. Just reduce the baking time a few minutes in that case.

Kim, what are you doing to me? Toffee bits, pecans, and chocolate is such a phenomenal combination that happens to be one of my favourite. That's cruel cause it's summertime, and I'm trying to make mostly no-bake desserts. Well, that must be one of the first recipes I'm going to make in fall, I guess.
Catherine says
Oh these look glorious, Kim! There is nothing better than chocolate, toffee and pecans, I wish I could sit down right now to an entire batch of with a tall glass of milk!!
