How to Make Crumbl Pecan Pie Cookies

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup butter (softened)
• 1/3 cup oil (vegetable or canola oil)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1 egg (at room temperature)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 & 1/3 cup flour
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 5 tbsp butter
• 2/3 cup brown sugar
• 1 & 1/4 cup chopped pecans
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/3 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon
• 1 pinch nutmeg
• 1 pinch salt

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, cream together the softened butter, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar.
3. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture and mix until well combined.
4. Gradually add the flour, salt, and baking powder, mixing until just combined.
5. Using a large cookie scoop, scoop out 9 equally sized cookie balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
6. Gently flatten each cookie ball to about 1 inch in thickness. Use a 1/4 measuring cup to press down the center of each cookie to create space for the pecan filling.

Tips to Make Crumbl Pecan Pie Cookies

• Ensure your butter is softened to room temperature for easier mixing.
• Don’t overmix the dough once you’ve added the flour, as this can make the cookies tough.
• If you want a deeper flavor, consider toasting the pecans before mixing them into the filling.

Variation

You can switch things up by adding chocolate chips to the cookie dough or using different nuts like walnuts or cashews in the filling.

FAQs

1. Can I freeze Crumbl Pecan Pie Cookies?
Yes, you can freeze the unbaked cookie dough for up to 3 months. Just scoop the dough into balls, freeze them individually, and then transfer them to a zip-top bag. When you’re ready, bake them straight from the freezer; just add a couple of extra minutes to the baking time.

2. What can I use instead of pecans?
You can replace pecans with walnuts or almonds for a different nutty flavor. If you’re looking for a nut-free version, try using sunflower seeds.

3. How can I make the cookies softer?
For a softer cookie, slightly underbake them, so they remain chewy in the center. You can also try adding an extra egg yolk to the dough for more moisture.
