Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, cream the 0.5 cup softened butter and 0.75 cup brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Beat in the 1 egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk the 1.5 cups flour, 0.5 teaspoon baking soda, and 0.25 teaspoon salt. Gradually add to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
Step 5
Fold in the 1 cup chopped pecans. The dough will be thick.
Step 6
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake until edges are golden, about 10-12 minutes.
Step 7
Let cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
