Time 40m

Yield 24-36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup sugar
1 cup butter
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup pecans, chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon almond flavoring
food coloring
water, for thick paste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • Combine all ingredients.
  • Drop spoonfuls of dough onto greased cookie sheet.
  • Place thumb print into each ball to make an indent for icing being sure not to go all the way through dough.
  • Bake 300 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
  • Let cool.
  • Place cookies on wax paper and prepare icing. Icing should be a thick paste. If icing is too thin add more confectioners sugar; if too thick add more water.
  • Fill the indents in each cookie with icing. Icing will harden.
  • Enjoy!
