12 Days of Christmas Treats: Pecan Sandies

     This is another one from my Grandmother's recipe box.  It is basically a Southern Grandmother's dream recipe.  Butter and pecans with a couple other things thrown in to hold the two together.  Well, perhaps it's my dream recipe...


Pecan Sandies 
1 C butter
1/2 C powdered sugar, sifted
2 C plain cake flour, sifted
1 tsp vanilla
1 C finely chopped pecans

Cream butter.  Add sugar.  Mix well.  Add flour.  Mix, and add vanilla and pecans.  Roll into small balls.  Bake at 325° for 20 minutes.  If oven tends to overheat, lower temp and set pan under sheet to keep bottom of cookies from burning.  Makes 34 cookie scoop size cookies.

Review:
Nobody doesn't like pecan sandies!  

UPDATE!
Cara has posted her kick-butt gingerbread ninjas on Fork and Beans!  Too stinkin' cute!
