Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F and spread the pecans for both the bark and cookie dough on a lined baking sheet.

  2. 2

    Toast the pecans for 7–8 minutes, stirring halfway through. Remove them from the oven and allow them to cool completely.

  3. 3

    Once the pecans have cooled, make the pecan bark. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a small pot.

  4. 4

    Add the bark's brown sugar, maple syrup, flour, cinnamon, and small pinch of salt. Simmer for 2–3 minutes, until the mixture thickens.

  5. 5

    Remove the pot from the heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

  6. 6

    Stir in 1 cup of the toasted pecans, then spread the mixture in an even layer on a lined baking sheet.

  7. 7

    Return the bark to the 350°F oven and bake for another 8–10 minutes. Remove it from the oven and allow it to cool.

  8. 8

    Once cooled, place the pecan bark in the freezer for 30–60 minutes while preparing the dough.

  9. 9

    For the dough, brown 1 cup of butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Let it simmer until amber flecks appear.

  10. 10

    Allow the browned butter to cool slightly. Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar, then whisk until combined.

  11. 11

    Whisk in the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until incorporated.

  12. 12

    Fold the flour, cinnamon, pie spice, baking soda, and salt into the wet mixture until only a few streaks remain.

  13. 13

    Fold in the remaining 1/2 cup of toasted pecans and the chopped pecan bark.

  14. 14

    Scoop the dough into portions and chill for at least 2–4 hours.

  15. 15

    When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F.

  16. 16

    Bake the chilled cookie dough for 10–14 minutes.

  17. 17

    Serve the cookies slightly warm.
