Nickey's Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies
"I'm trying to remember how Nickey made these and setting it here so I don't forget. The amount of cookies you get depends on the size of the cookies you make. Sometimes I add about a quarter cup white sugar or mix n match the chocolate chips. Thinking about maybe cranberries?
I just found the paper I wrote this on...I don't think it makes a difference which toffee you use but I used Barton's Almond Butter Toffee for this...it's chocolate coated :D"

Christmas cookies are made fast and furious around here during the holiday season, and these were a happy addition to our cookie bags this year. The family and neighbors gave us many thanks for these delicious cookies! Tony

<p>Aloha! I just recently started spending more time in the kitchen and am learning that cooking and baking can be fun as well as challenging. My favorite cookbook resources are my 'gourmet' sister and the very patient and generous Ohana of Zaar. Mahalo nui loa! <br /><br />My rating system: The first time I try a recipe, I follow the instructions as given; if I do a little tweaking, I keep that in mind when rating. It's not right to rate lower because of something I did or didn't do. <br />***** ... Excellent! Tasted great with/without tweaking. <br />**** ... Loved It! Tasted great with/without tweaking. <br />No stars ... May be an excellent recipe but I was unable to get it to work for me. May or may not try again later. We don't all have the same taste preferences. I've found recipes with lots of five stars that just didn't work for me and some with less that I thought were great. <br />Thank you All for sharing!</p>
