Yield 32 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups flour
1/4 cup cornstarch
3 tablespoons finely chopped pecans, toasted
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup ice water
2 tablespoons turbinado sugar

Steps:

  • Combine flour and next 3 ingredients (through salt), stirring well with a whisk.
  • Place butter and brown sugar in a medium bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until light and fluffy (about 1 minute).

  • Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Unwrap dough; cut each log into 16 slices using a serrated knife.

  • Sprinkle tops evenly with turbinado sugar, gently pressing into dough.
  • Bake for 18 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • Remove from baking sheets; cool on a wire rack.
