By carvalhohm

Ingredients

• 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
• 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup chopped pecans

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degree F. In a large bowl, with an electric beater on medium speed, cream the butter and confectioners' sugar for 1 minute. Add the vanilla; mix well. With a spoon, stir in the flour and pecans.

Drop by teaspoonfuls about 1 inch apart onto ungreased rimmed baking sheets.

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden; do not over-bake.

Let cool and serve. Makes about 4 dozen.

Notes:
Dust the tops of these with a bit of confectioners' sugar right before serving.
