Ingredients
- 1/2 cup sugar + sugar for rolling the dough in
- 10 tbs (1 stick + 2tbs) butter, softened to room temp
- 1 and 1/3 cup flour
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees; prepare baking sheet
- In a bowl, beat sugar and butter until well incorporated
- Add flour and continue beating until well mixed; dough will be crumbly
- Knead dough with your fingers into 1 inch balls, roll them in sugar, then shape them into disks. Press your finger into the middle of the dough to make a well, almost to the bottom of the cookie
- Place cookies on prepared baking sheet (I like these parchment paper sheets), about 1 to 2 inches apart
- Bake for 8 minutes, remove from oven
- Re-press wells if needed; drop 1/4 tsp of pecan pie filling in each cookie, do not overfill (See filling recipe above)
- Return to oven and bake for an additional 4 to 6 minutes; total bake time 12-14 minutes
- Cookies are done when they have a dry appearance, cookies will not brown
- Cool cookies for 5 minutes on baking sheet, move to cookie rack to finish cooling; serve
- Makes about 30 cookies
