Finally, after many request, I got around to putting
a baking post on my blog! I’m so happy that people actually want me to put my
baking recipes up here because I absolutely love baking. Seriously, if I could
get paid for baking treats all day in my kitchen, that would be my dream job. Especially
with fall in the air, I feel like that’s when all my baking needs come out. So hopefully
I can put up a baking post every couple of weeks!
For my first baking post, I decided to make the
easiest cookies I could think of: butter pecan cookies. Seriously, I never made
such an easy cookie before! After you make these, you’ll be thanking me because
you will be making them all the time. So let’s get started!
Ingredients:
·
1 cup butter at room temperature
(equals 2 sticks)
·
3/4 cup brown sugar (1/2 cup +
1/4 cup)
·
1 teaspoon vanilla
·
2 cups of flour
·
24 pecan halves
·
1 cup of crushed pecans
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Step 2: Cream together your room temperature butter and
your brown sugar.
Step 3: After your butter and sugar mixture is
combined and fluffy, slowly add your flour in the bowl and mix. I suggest adding
half of the flour in two intervals. Combine until you can barely see any more
flour.
Step 4: Add in your cup of crushed pecans and
continue mixing till everything is combined.
Step 5: Roll out your cookie dough mixture into
little balls onto two baking sheets. The dough mixture should make exactly 24
cookies. (btw, you do not need to grease your baking sheet because of all the
butter we added into the cookies)
Step 6: Use your hands to press down and flatten out
the cookies. After you flatten them out, add your pecan halves on the top of
the cookies.
Step 7: Put your cookies in the oven and let them bake
for 10-12 minutes. These cookies do not really darken or change colors, so
watch them closely.
