I can’t resist making these treats – it’s my third consecutive night!

Sprinkle a little extra sugar on top of each cookie.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Variations & Tips

For a nut-free version, try substituting the pecans with chocolate chips or dried cranberries. You can also add a teaspoon of cinnamon to the dough for a warm, spiced flavor. If you’re catering to gluten-free diets, use a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend.

For those who enjoy a sweeter cookie, dip the cooled cookies in melted chocolate and let them set. These cookies also make wonderful gifts during the holiday season; simply package them in a decorative tin or box, and they’re ready to share with loved ones.
