Butter Pecan Cookies



I love butter pecan cookies; I love the way they melt in your mouth; I love the taste of pecans, and of course the taste of butter. This recipe is adapted from a recipe in Everyday food magazine  Note to self: follow direction.  I forgot to flatten the cookies until they were about half-way done baking, so they didn’t turn out quite as pretty as they could have. Still, they lasted about an hour here.
By the way, here’s a tip I learned . Cream the butter first. Then add sugar and cream them together. This is the way it is supposed to be done

INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/3 cup sugar, plus more for coating
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
Here what you need to do...
 Preheat oven to 350°. On a baking sheet, toast pecans until fragrant, about 6 minutes. Let cool completely; finely chop.

 With an electric mixer, cream butter for about a minute. Add 1/3 cup sugar and cream until light, about 1 minute more. Beat in vanilla, salt, and flour, scraping down sides of bowl, just until dough comes together. Fold in pecans.

 Separate dough into 12 pieces; squeeze dough to shape into balls. Roll in sugar. Place,  3 inches apart, on a baking sheet.
 Gently flatten with the bottom of a glass (reshape sides if necessary). Sprinkle with sugar.

 Bake until golden brown, rotating sheet halfway through, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with more sugar. Cool cookies on a wire rack.
