Ingredients:
- 1 cup softened butter
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1½ tsp vanilla extract
- 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup finely chopped pecans
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for coating)
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter and ½ cup powdered sugar until smooth. Add vanilla extract, salt, flour, and finely chopped pecans, mixing until well combined. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Let the cookies cool completely. In a separate bowl, place 1 cup powdered sugar. Toss the cooled cookies in the powdered sugar until fully coated.
