Rich Butter Pecan Cookies image

The taste is similar to a pound cake! Rich and buttery! For successful taste use only butter - no substitutes. A pretty cookie which is topped with chopped pecans. Our family has always used this recipe for parties, weddings, and holidays. It is different from the normal cookies and therefore, everyone asks for the recipe. It also makes a pretty presentation on a Christmas cookie tray.

The cookies didn't spread out very much in the oven. They were more like thick bars than cookies.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.
