Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Add the butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the flour, powdered sugar, and vanilla.
- Once the dough starts to come together, add the pecans and mix just until they’re incorporated-- you don’t want to overmix!
- Transfer the dough to a lightly-floured surface and roll it to ¼-inch thick.
- Use a 2-inch cookie cutter to cut the dough into discs, then place them about 2 inches apart on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Transfer the cookies to the freezer to chill for at least 15 minutes.
- Bake the frozen cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until they start to turn golden brown on the bottom and edges.
- Transfer the cookies to a wire rack and allow them to cool before storing.
Notes
- Storage: Store pecan shortbread cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
