1

Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, beat granulated and brown sugars, butter and egg with electric mixer on medium speed, or mix with spoon, until creamy. Stir in flour, 1 tablespoon coffee granules, the baking soda and salt. Stir in pecans and chocolate chunks.
2

Drop dough by 1/4 cupfuls about 2 inches apart onto ungreased large cookie sheet.
3

Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown and edges are set. Cool 4 minutes; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
4

Meanwhile, in small bowl, dissolve 1/2 teaspoon coffee granules in water. Stir in powdered sugar until smooth and thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle cooled cookies with Coffee Drizzle.

Expert Tips

Sprinkle cookies with additional chopped pecans just after drizzling.
Allow Coffee Drizzle to set before storing cookies. Store cookies between layers of waxed paper, plastic wrap or foil.
