Ingredients
- ½ cup butter softened
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 large egg yolk, room temperature
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt if using unsalted butter then add 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 tablespoons water hot, not boiling
- 1¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup pecan chopped
Instructions
- Beat the butter until soft and creamy, approximately 2 minutes, add the brown sugar and beat for 1 minute, add the egg yolk, vanilla and salt beat to combine, add the baking soda and hot water and combine, add the flour and pecans combine just until mixed.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill for one hour or firm enough to shape. Form the dough into a log 1½ inches wide, wrap in plastic and chill for four hours or up to 3 days.
- Preheat the oven to 400F/200C line 1-2 baking sheets with parchment paper, cut into ¼ inch slices, place 1" apart on the baking sheets and bake for 6-8 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool 5 minutes on the baking sheet then move to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
Notes
- Leftover cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze baked cookies for up to 3 months.
- You can store the icebox cookie dough log in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or store up to 3 months in the freezer. I like to wrap the cookie dough log in wax paper then store in a freeze safe bag to prevent freezer burn.
- Yes. You will need to add two minutes to the baking time. This is a great way to have slice and bake homemade cookies anytime!
