Make the dough a day ahead and slice and bake the day you need them. Chic with cocktails. This should come together as a ball of douch--if you have trouble, add an egg white to the mixture in the food processor. I have had it go both ways.

PECAN CRACKERS RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Pecan Crackers Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by lorik

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 package graham crackers, 16 ounces
2 cups chopped pecans
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup margarine

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with graham crackers. Sprinkle evenly with pecans. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, butter and margarine. Bring to a boil and boil 3 minutes. Remove from heat and spoon mixture over pecans, coating well. Bake in preheated oven 12 minutes, until golden. Cool completely before serving. *Reviewers notes: Most people had fine results with all butter instead of 1/2 butter, 1/2 margarine, however suggested cutting overall butter to 3/4 cup. Also suggested adding coconut or chocolate chips; replacing white sugar with brown; definitely adding a dash of vanilla; also using club, Ritz or Saltines for a more sweet/salty combo. Recommended baking for 9 to 10 minutes instead of 12.
