In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Mix in the vanilla extract until well combined.
Combine Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
Stir in the chopped pecans until evenly distributed.
Form Cookies:
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls.
Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each ball slightly with the bottom of a glass or your fingers.
Bake:
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
