The BEST Pecan Shortbread Cookies

Hi there!

Hope this finds you well. I have so many recipe vlogs waiting to be published, but I hardly have time to sit to write description for the ingredients and whatnot 🫣😅🫣😅

Today I baked a teabread as well made Bakso, Indonesian meatballs, however for the soup, I prepared Vietnamese pho instead. So it’s a fusion 😁

How is your weekend so far?

It is close to 8 PM and my husband drove to a neighboring town to pick up the boys. They had a Warhammer play date 😁

Anyhoo! Here is Pecan Shortbread Cookies!

2/3 c pecans
1/2 c unsalted butter
1/3 c icing sugar
3/4 c flour
1/4 tsp BP
A pinch of salt
2 tbsp flour
1 cap vanilla essence
50 g raw sugar

Toast pecans on preheated 350 F for 10-12 mins, let it cool, then mix with flour, process until fine

Cream butter and icing sugar for 5 minutes, then cream in vanilla essence until just combined, then add in flour

Mix with spatula a little, then add in pecans, knead into a nice log

Coat dough log with raw sugar, chill until ready to bake. I like freezing it overnight.

Slice and bake on preheated 325 F for 6 minutes, rotate the pan, and bake for another 6 minutes

Take out pan from the oven, let stand for 3 minutes before moving cookies to rack

Cool on rack completely before storing

Enjoy 😍
