Savannah Chewies Old-fashioned Southern Chocolate Pecan Cookies
"Savannah Chewies are a classic Southern treat balancing rich chocolate flavor with crunchy pecans. They bake up with crisp, crackly tops like a meringue but stay soft and fudgy inside, almost like a brownie. These chewy cookies come together in 30 minutes with basic pantry staples and have a unique texture that’s hard to pass up. Savannah Chewies, much like pecan pralines, are a Southern classic that dates back a couple of hundred years. On the outside, they look like delicate meringues with crackly shells, but bite in and you’ll find a chewy, gooey chocolate interior. "
