#1,296: Not your ordinary chocolate cookie...Egg-less and Fudgey!


The actual name of this recipe is "Jane's Favorite Chocolate Cookie," but I knew that might not be intriguing enough to make someone want to check this recipe out.  I had my 5 year old eagerly helping me make these cookies.  These were so simple to make and the batter (since it is eggless we tried it) is just as good as the cookies themselves!  These almost didn't make it into the oven.

The cookies do get more of a chewy/crispy texture once baked and cooled, but they have a great fudgey taste.  We loved them!  I made these to take with me to book club, hopefully the girls will like them too. 


This made slightly more than 2 dozen cookies.  I learned a few things about this recipe:
1. spray the cookie sheet with non-stick spray.
2.  These do not thin out when baked so you can squeeze a few more onto each tray.  



3 Tbs. butter
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 (14oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup flour
1 cup pecans (halved or chopped)


Melt butter, chocolate chips and condensed milk in a double boiler on the stove until smooth and shiny.  Stir constantly and don't overheat.  

Remove from stove and quickly fold in flour and pecans.  Scoop with a cookie scoop onto a cookie sheet, two inches apart.  Let sit for 15 minutes in a cool place.  

Bake at 350 for 10 minutes.  Cool on a rack before eating.
