As we prepare to move on to our All-Irish Cooking month of March, The Cook
& Kitchen Staff are offering you some of the best recipes sent from our
Members in February. Today’s offering is from an unknown AOL member that
knows a great cookie recipe when they see one and has shared this fantastic
little recipe with us today.
Thank you to all members that took the time to send in a recipe. We’re just
sorry we won’t have an opportunity to publish them all!
Grind the pecans and sugar in a food processor and place in a large mixing
bowl. Add flour, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl, beat egg
thoroughly and add melted butter and vanilla. Stir into the flour mixture.
Drop by teaspoonfuls about 3-inches apart onto lightly greased foil-lined
baking sheets. Place a pecan half in the center of each cookie. Bake in a
pre-heated oven at 325-F degrees for 8 to 10-minutes or until golden brown
and lacy. Allow cookies to cool completely before carefully removing from
foil. Store in an airtight container.
