Cooking Tips |
|
*It is important for
your butter to be soft when you prepare the dough so it
will hold together nicely when you shape it into balls. |

***Hey,
This One's a Keeper!- would
make it again. "Another addicting cookie recipe- great
vanilla flavor combined with the pecans! It was a little
strange making them as the dough is a mass of crumbs, but they all come
together when you form the balls and they turn out great. If you
try to eat them while warm, they will crumble apart- they need time to
set."
