Pecan Sandies

INGREDIENTS:

12 tbsp butter, slightly softened

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 tbsp ice water

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp cinnamon

2 cups plain flour

1 cup finely chopped Dickey Farms pecans

1 1/2 tsp vanilla

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat oven to 325°F. Line baking sheets with baking parchment.

Using an electric mixer, beat together butter and sugar until smooth.

Add all other ingredients and mix to combine.

Chill dough covered for at least 30 minutes.

Firmly form dough into 1 inch balls. Dough will be crumbly, so take time to press it together well to hold shape. Place dough balls on parchment lined baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Using a flat bottom glass, gently flatten balls to about 1/2 inch thick, or roll into crescent shapes.

Bake at 325°F for 20 minutes.
