Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 cups butter
  • 2 cups brown sugar
  • 2 egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup pecans reserve 1/3 cup for sprinkling on frosted cookies, chopped

Frosting:

  • ½ cup brown butter reserved
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • ¼ cup water hot

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. For the cookies: Place butter in a heavy saucepan over medium heat stirring occasionally for 5-8 minutes or until deep brown with small flecks. Butter will melt, bubble, foam and then turn a deep brown, from the bottom up. Be careful at this point, it can burn quite easily once it has turned brown. Remove from heat and pour in another container to stop the cooking process. Take out ½ cup and set aside for frosting.
  3. Beat slightly cooled remaining butter with brown sugar until it isn’t hot anymore. Add eggs, vanilla, soda, powder and salt. Beat thoroughly. Add flour and 2/3 cup chopped pecans.
  4. Bake at 350 for about 10 minutes depending on size of cookie you scoop out. Small ones are better because this is a VERY rich cookie. Combine frosting ingredients and beat well. Spread over cooled cookies and sprinkle remaining chopped pecans on top. Makes 4-5 dozen.
  5. For the frosting: Mix all ingredients in a bowl until smooth. Frosting is thick but you can add a tad more hot water to make it spreadable if you need to.
