My grandmother used to make pecan crescent cookies every year at Christmas. It’s a family recipe that surely will have you walking away with powdered sugar all over your shirt.
:: Pecan Crescents ::
1/2 c butter, softened
8 T powdered sugar, plus extra for rolling the cookies into
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 c flour
1 c chopped pecans
Cream butter. Add sugar, vanilla and flour. Mix thoroughly. Add pecans. Shape like crescents by pressing dough together in your hands. Bake 350 degrees for 20 minutes. While still warm dip in powdered sugar.
Today I’m also enjoying The Hotel Cafe Presents… Winter Songs. Great holiday music that’s good for your soul. This is the first track on the cd – Sarah Bareilles and Ingrid Michaelson – Winter Song. Enjoy!
Love and Peace.
