Whisk together the sugars (caster and soft light brown) and melted butter until well combined.
Add the vanilla extract and egg to the butter and sugar mixture, then whisk until ribbons form. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the flour and baking soda with a wooden spoon.
Stir through the chopped chocolate and pecans, reserving a small amount of each for topping the cookies later.
Chill the dough in the fridge for 40–60 minutes to firm up.
Scoop the dough into 6 balls using an ice cream scoop and place on a tray lined with baking paper. If the dough is too wet, use your hands.
Freeze the dough balls on a tray or plate lined with baking paper, ideally overnight. Once frozen, transfer to a bag or container for easy storage in the freezer.
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 180°C (360°F). Place 2–3 cookie dough balls on a lined tray, leaving space between them.
Bake for about 15 minutes, until golden at the edges but still soft in the middle.
Immediately after baking, use a bowl or mug to swirl the cookies into a circular shape, then press in the reserved chocolate and pecans. Allow to fully cool for around 40 minutes.
