Pecan Sandies
Greg DuPree
How to Make It
Step 1
Heat oven to 350° F. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
Step 2
With an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugars on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla. Reduce speed to low and gradually add the flour mixture, mixing until just incorporated (the dough will be crumbly). Mix in the pecans.
Step 3
Roll heaping tablespoons of the dough into balls and place on parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing them 1 inch apart. Bake until the edges are golden, 18 to 20 minutes.
Step 4
Cool slightly on the baking sheets, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Note: Total Time includes cooling time.

The first sheet is in the oven. I'm trying not to eat the rest of the dough. It is so good!
Later---These are VERY good cookies. I've made a lot of cookies along the way but never Pecan Sandies. Didn't know what I was missing. Now I'm trying not to eat the cookies and they're promised to a bake sale. I will make these again and again. Thank you very much!

Buttery, flakey, comforting. Easy to make. Used a cookie scooper to drop on cookie sheet. Perfect mounds of pecan goodness. Enjoy!

The Hubs is diabetic... could I substitute Splenda for both of the sugars?

The serving size would be 1 cookie.You would add the pecans when you added the flour. The pecans are chopped and added with flour so they are all through the cookie

I don't see serving sizes in nutritional information.
Is it per 1 cookie?
