- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder

Preparation:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone mat. In a dry skillet, toast the pecans over medium heat until fragrant, then set aside. In a large bowl, cream butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
