I wanted to make Pecan Sandies over the Christmas holiday but I ran out of time since I made 5 sugar cookie recipes and decorated hundreds of cookies. I am so happy I finally had a chance to make this recipe. I have to say it is one of my favorite cookies ever. The cookie has a great flavor and the pecans make it one amazing cookie. The crumb is chewy and the cookie is tender and full of pecans in every bite. See recipe below.
