Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup butter (softened)
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup finely chopped pecans
  • 1 cup powdered sugar ((for rolling))

Instruction

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, mix the butter and powdered sugar until creamy.
  • Add the flour, vanilla, salt and chopped pecans. Mix well again.
  • Chill the dough for at least 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Roll the dough into 1" balls. Place on a non-stick baking sheet. These cookies will not rise or flatten, so they can be placed relatively close together.
  • Bake for about 10-12 minutes. Don't allow the balls to brown. This will ensure they cookies are buttery soft!
  • Immediately roll the cookie balls in powdered sugar.
  • Allow the cookies to cool completely and then roll them in powdered sugar again.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
