These are probably my most favourite cookie. The smell in the house when they cook is amazing. Don't omit anything if you can help it as these cookies are the best as per the recipe. Nice gift giving cookie. I make these for Christmas cookies swaps.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter softened (don't use margerine!) shopping list

- 1 cup all purpose flour shopping list
- 1/4 tsp baking powder shopping list
- 1/3 cup pecan halves shopping list

How to make it
- Line 2 rimless baking sheets wiht parchment paper or grease; set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat butter with sugar until fluffy. Beat in egg, milk and vanilla.
