Sugar: Pecan Sugar Cookies
Source of Recipe
The Bake Sale Cookbook
List of Ingredients
1 cup toasted pecans, finely ground
1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
6 tablespoons sugar or powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup powdered sugar, for sprinkling
Recipe
Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Lightly grease a cookie sheet. Place the nuts, butter, sugar, vanilla, flour and salt in the bowl of a mixer fitted with a paddle and mix until well combined. Roll into one big ball, cover with waxed paper or plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm, about 1-2 hours. To form the cookies, break off small pieces and roll into 1" balls. Place on prepared cookie sheets; flatten each ball into a flat disk using a wet water glass or your hand. Transfer the cookies to the oven and bake until they begin to brown, about 14-16 minutes. Cool for 2 minutes, remove to a rack, and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Cool the cookie sheets between batches. Makes 3-4 dozen.
