INGREDIENTS

Dough
- 🧈 1 cup unsalted butter
- ½ cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 🌾 2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
- 🌰 2 cups finely chopped pecans
- 1 tablespoon sifted confectioners' sugar, or as needed (Optional)

STEPS

Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C) and grease 4 baking sheets.

Beat butter and brown sugar together in a bowl using an electric mixer. Stir in vanilla extract, and gradually add flour until the mixture is crumbly. Add pecans and work into the dough.

Pinch off dough in teaspoons and roll into balls about 1/2-inch in diameter. Place onto the prepared baking sheets.

Bake in the preheated oven until firm and browned on the bottoms, for 15 to 18 minutes.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly for about 5 minutes. Roll warm cookies in confectioners' sugar.
