Time 1h

Yield 180-340 cookies, 180-340 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

720 g margarine, with salt, softened (8 bars)
1 cup powdered sugar (150 gr.)
250 g pecans, chopped (2 cups)
1 kg wheat flour
3 tablespoons cinnamon (to taste)
2 cups powdered sugar (aprox.)

Steps:

  • Mix the margarine bars. It's important to use softened margarine otherwise the dough will be too sticky.
  • Slowly add the flour, mix until it's almost well combined, let a bit of flour aside to roll the dough later and to add to the cookies sheet if it's needed.
  • Add the sugar and mix until well combined.
  • Add the pecans and mix well. Roll the dough if needed, it shouldn't be sticky at this point.
  • Pre-heat the oven to 180ºC-220ºC.
  • Start making the fingers, size depends on preference.
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes.
  • Let them cool down a bit and roll in the sugar and cinnamon mix while the cookies are still warm.
  • Enjoy!
