Yield 8 Dozen

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup butter, softened
1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. salt
2 cups pecan halves
1 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, beat butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy. Combine flour and salt; gradually add to butter mixture and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours or until easy to handle. Divide dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion into an 18"x8" rectangle. Cut widthwise into six 3-inch sections; cut each section into 3"x1" strips. Roll each strip around a pecan half; place 1 inch apart on ungreased baking sheets. Repeat. Bake at 350 degrees F for 12-15 minutes or until the bottoms are lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Roll in confectioners' sugar. Store in an airtight container at room temperature, or freeze for up to 3 months.
