Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line a sheet pan with parchment paper. 2. Using a stand or hand held mixer, add the cream cheese, butter, sugar substitute, egg and vanilla to the mixing bowl and beat on high until creamy and fluffy. 3. Add in the remaining ingredients and mix on medium until well blended. 4. Using a teaspoon or 1 ounce ice cream scoop, drop 16 evenly spaced cookies on the lined pan and bake for about 8-10 minutes. Let cool 10-15 minutes before serving. George's Tips | You can press the cookies down into the parchment paper a little before baking for a crispier cookie. Variation | This basic cookie dough can be used to make many varieties of cookies. Try adding 1⁄2 teaspoon cinnamon or ginger for a refreshing crisp, or replace the pecans with almond slices and add dry coconut!

THE BEST PECAN MELTAWAYS EVER!
From the January 2010 Taste of Home magazine by Alberta Kay. Make the dough ahead of time and allow time for it to chill. The proportions are a bit different than other recipes posted. These sound like the wonderful cookies my mother used to make. Will let you know soon.
