This cookie is more tender than the typical butter cookie because there's powdered sugar in the dough rather than granulated sugar. Try them!
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 3/4 cup sifted powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 2-1/3 cups flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Pecan halves
- Chocolate kisses
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In large bowl, combine butter and powdered sugar and mix well. Add vanilla and beat. Add dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Form dough around pecan halves or chocolate kiss, enclosing nut or chocolate completely. Bake on ungreased cookie sheets at 400 degrees F for 10-12 minutes. Cookies should not brown. Immediately drop into a bowl full of powdered sugar and roll to coat. Let cool on wire racks. When cool, roll in powdered sugar again.
