Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ cup butter room temperature (1 stick, unsalted
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract pure
  • ½ cup pecans chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. 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.
  3. Once the dough starts to come together, add the pecans and mix just until they’re incorporated-- you don’t want to overmix!
  4. Transfer the dough to a lightly-floured surface and roll it to ¼-inch thick.
  5. 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.
  6. Transfer the cookies to the freezer to chill for at least 15 minutes.
  7. Bake the frozen cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until they start to turn golden brown on the bottom and edges.
  8. 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.
