1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 Teaspoon salt
1 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons flour
30 Hershey kiss

Steps:

  • 1. Separate egg whites and let them come to room temperature. 2. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or brown parcel wrapping paper.

Drop another little mound of dough on top to cover each dandy. 6. Bake at 275 degrees for about 40 minutes, or until meringue is slightly golden and dry to the touch. 7. Cool by setting sheet on wire rack. When completely cool, peel carefully from paper and store in airtight container in a dry place (not the refrigerator). 8. 3-4 dozen

Tips:

  • Use high-quality, fresh pecans for the best flavor.
  • Toast the pecans in a preheated oven to enhance their flavor and aroma.
  • Use unsalted butter and cream cheese for precise control over the sweetness and saltiness of the cookies.
  • Cream the butter and cream cheese together until light and fluffy for a smooth and creamy cookie dough.
  • Gradually add the sugar to the creamed mixture to prevent the cookies from becoming grainy.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time to ensure a well-combined batter.
  • Stir in the dry ingredients until just combined to avoid overmixing the dough.
  • Fold in the toasted pecans for an even distribution throughout the cookies.
  • Chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
