I think I may make this into a bottom for a bar I want to make!
oohhh good ideaaa, Nina!!
These are so delicious! I made a half recipe and was wishing I had made the whole recipe.
I have the perfect recipient for these!! Looks like I’m making a full batch!
Pecan shortbread cookies! Can’t wait to see everyone’s, they’re my (almost) favorite cookie! =)
Im baking them right now!
Just a tip: to avoid “the case of the disappearing powdered sugar” wait until the cookies are completely cool. They will retain their slightly moist tops which is optimal for coating in powdered sugar.
These are great. Crumbly and delicious. You can toast the pecans for 10 mins on 350 before chopping them to really bring out their flavor. Yum.
Great tips! I will bake them tonight, then coat them with sugar and photograph them tomorrow morning.
I made these earlier in the week and they were great. Nina, thanks for the tip…you’re right, these would make a wonderful base for a bar.
Well I have yet to make mine yet. Tomorrow! Well, more like later today!
I think I’ll be using walnuts. MUCH cheaper and I have some in the house too!
Ladies, I will have these up this afternoon. Sorry had a really hard week with family issues. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Lara
Dear Bakers,
I will be back baking with the April 25th recipe. I am currently heading a bake sale for Share Our Strength. It will be on April 17 (in two weeks). I will be busy baking for this fundraiser. So, I will need to pull back from SMS for a few weeks.
I’ll be back!!

SORRY! I didn’t blog about this yet. I’ll be posting about it on Wednesday! It’s just been a crazy week with studying for my last midterm this semester!

Im so sorry I’ve been a SMS slacker. I’m going to do a double up this sunday with a caramel apple pie and the pecan shortbreads. Easter is a good time to get rid of sweet treats.
