I received this recipe from a friend at work. This is a simple cookie, yet tasty! I like them because you can keep them in the fridge and bake as needed! (Prep time includes 1 hour of chilling time and the yield was estimated, as they never stay around long enough for me to count them.)

24 cookies (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs, beaten
4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Directions

1
Beat butter and sugars until creamy.
2
Add eggs and mix well.
3
Add flour, baking soda, salt, and vanilla.
4
Mix well.
5
Stir in pecans.
6
Shape dough into logs and wrap with plastic wrap of freezer paper.
7
Chill in refrigerator (at least an hour) or freeze.
8
Slice thin and bake in a 350°F pre-heated oven for 10 minutes.

Now that our DD has be home and gone back to college I can get my review done. These cookies are so much better then the store bought pecan cookies. The dough is on the dryer side but they bake up fine. I feel the pecans are a must, not an options, as they add so much to the cookie. I divided my dough into 3 logs and baked one so far, 2nd one is for Nov 17 when DD comes home again and the 3rd is for us. I love cookie recipes that can go in the freezer and then just slice when need for when company pops in. It's always nice to serve fresh bake good to your friends. Thanks for posting Kim I'll be making this regularly from now on. Made for PAC Fall 2007 game

These were fantastic! I made them for my husband's men's group and they were a big hit! I used 1/2 cup Crisco + 3 tablespoons of water for half of the butter. Left out the nuts and used parchment paper to bake them on! Thanks for sharing your recipe!

This is a really good recipe. I made these up, rolled them out and wrapped them in wax paper and put in the freezer. Now when I need something in a hurry, I can grab a log, cut them up and in 15 minutes, I have a wonderful, freshly baked cookie to go with my cup of coffee. Thanks for the great recipe.
