2. In a large mixing bowl, sift together dry ingredients. Gradually add dry ingredients to creamed mixture and beat well until completely combined.
3. Spoon cookie dough into a cookie press fitted with a heart-shaped disc. Press dough onto baking sheets, about 1 inch apart. Press a pecan half into the center of each cookie. Bake about 10 minutes, until slightly brown.
4. Remove cookies from oven and transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool. When cool, store in airtight containers between layers of waxed paper.
