Categories     Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1-1/2 stick butter or margarine, softened
2 Tbsp cold water
5 Tbsp 4x sugar
1 tsp vanilla flavoring
2 c all-purpose flour
1 c finely chopped pecans

Steps:

  • 1. Cream together butter, water, sugar and vanilla flavoring until smooth.
  • 2. Fold in flour and pecans; mix well.
  • 3. Pinch off small amounts of dough with your hands, shape into finger shape. Bake at 300 for 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Makes 36 to 48 cookies. Roll in powdered sugar while hot.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your Nutty Fingers.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the mixture, making your Nutty Fingers light and airy.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the mixture from curdling.
  • Stir in the flour and baking powder until just combined. Overmixing will make your Nutty Fingers tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will make the dough easier to handle and will help to prevent it from sticking to your hands.
  • Bake the Nutty Fingers until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
  • Let the Nutty Fingers cool completely before frosting them. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:
