My grandmother baked the most wonderful cookies, cakes and breads. These she sold during the Depression to make money to help her family. This recipe is among one of my favorites, because I loved crunchy cookies and pecans. This recipe went into my hope chest in 1963.

1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans
½ cup white sugar

Steps:
