How to Make Irresistible Butter Pecan Cookies
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Toast the pecans in the oven for 8-10 minutes, checking frequently until golden brown.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar for 3-5 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gradually add all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt, mixing gently until just combined.
- Fold in the toasted pecans until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden.
- Cool for a few moments on sheets, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Notes
Optional: Sprinkle with sea salt for extra flavor. For a twist, add chocolate chips or swap pecans for walnuts.
