BUTTER PECAN COOKIES

I'm such a sucker for homemade cookies. We always have at least one variety in our freezer (to keep their freshness) and these butter pecan cookies are usually the main suspect. It's a classic chocolate chip recipe with chopped pecans in place of the chips. So easy and delicious!
