Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups finely chopped pecans
  • 1 tablespoon sifted confectioners' sugar, or as needed (Optional)

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease 4 baking sheets.

Step 2
Beat butter and brown sugar together in a bowl using an electric mixer. Stir in vanilla extract. Stir in flour gradually; mixture will be crumbly. Add pecans and work into the dough.

Step 3
Pinch off dough in teaspoons; roll in hands to form balls that are about 1/2-inch in diameter. Place onto the prepared baking sheets.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until firm and browned on bottoms, 15 to 18 minutes.

Step 5
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Roll warm cookies in confectioners' sugar.
