Recipe- Delicious Chocolate Chip And Pecan Cookies

Some recipes are so comforting to make that they completely calm you down. One such recipe for me is this chocolate chip and pecan cookies. We all need to do everything that can make us feel good and productive these days. I see a lot of you baking these days. Some of you are doing it everyday and that makes me very happy.

This lockdown has had a significantly positive impact on me because it is after so long that I am getting to bake so much. Usually, my team is there to help me out in my studio kitchen while I handle other meetings and photoshoots. Consequently, I never get the time or the opportunity to bake as much as I would like to.

It is absolutely amazing to be in my studio kitchen every single day and bake everything from scratch. It reminds me of my initial baking days. How I got started with my website, and my Instagram profile. Keeping this nostalgia in mind I want to share a cookie recipe with all of you and these chocolate chip and pecan cookies are an absolute delight!
