Ingredients
1 lb butter, no margarine!!
1 cup powdered sugar
4 cup flour, sifted
2 cup pecans, chopped, no sub!
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 powdered sugar, extra for rolling
Cooking Directions:
NOTE With the onset of the Holiday season, I thought I'd post a recipe for cookies that my Grandfather had made for as long as I can remember (it just wouldn't be Christmas without them.). This is the recipe that I got from him, though I have no idea where he got it. I have made them for the last six years and have gotten many requests for the recipe. A word of caution, however, you can never eat just one. :) Enjoy!! Michelle COOKIES Mix according to butter cream method. Mold into balls. Chill. Bake on ungreased pan 35 minutes at 325*. Roll in powdered sugar while still warm. NOTE Molly, Hi!! I'm sorry about the confusion on the recipe. "mix according to butter cream method" (I had to ask my Grandfather when I first read that several years ago) means to cream the butter and sugar together first ....add vanilla....then dry ingredients. You will need additional powdered sugar in which to roll the cookies. Another note is that you don't want the cookies to be too large....about 1" in diameter. Of course you'll have to sample a few along the way....quality control, you know...LOL Just be careful, otherwise you'll end up eating may too many (I'm speaking from personal experience !! LOL) I know that you'll love these....they are always the first to go and there are NEVER enough to go around. I've always added them to my holiday baskets and have even been told by friends and family that I didn't put enough in each basket...(I'm always amazed, considering I usually put about 2 dozen ) LOL I'll pass the hugs on to my Grandfather...I'm sure it will make him smile. :) I hope that this helps to clarify things. :) Michelle {{}}
