2 sticks of unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups finely chopped pecans
2 cups sifted flour
Powdered sugar for dusting
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Beat butter and powdered sugar in mixer until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and pecans. Remove from mixer and stir in flour by hand being careful not to overmix. Form into small balls and place on a buttered cookie sheet.
Bake 10-12 minutes or until just beginning to get the slightest bit colored on the bottom. Remove upon the first sign of color and set on a rack to cool. When cool enough to touch place in a bowl with powdered sugar on top and bottom and toss gently. Occasionally toss with sugar while cooling, trying to get as much sugar as possible to stick. When cold, place cookies in airtight container and cover until ready to serve.
