Ingredients

• 1 cup of butter
• 1/2 cup white or confectioner's sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons water
• 2 cups flour (can sift for lighter tasting cookie
• 1 cup chopped pecans
• 1/2 cup confectioner's sugar

Preparation

Step 1

In a medium bowl, cream the butter and sugar. Stir in vanilla and water. Add the flour and nuts, mixing until blended. Can cover and chill to make cookies later, or bake right away. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Bake for 15-20 minutes. When cookies come out of the oven, give them time to cool and then dust with confectioner's sugar.
