Ingredients:
1 cup butter or margarine, softened |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar |
2 eggs, separated |
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon rind |
1 teaspoon lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon grated orange rind |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 1/4 cups finely chopped pecans |
grape jelly |
Directions:
1. Cream butter in a large mixing bowl; gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Add egg yolks, beating well. Add lemon rind, juice, orange rind, vanilla, and salt; mix well. Sift flour; add to creamed mixture, mixing well. 2. Shape into 1-inch balls. Dip each ball in egg whites, and roll in pecans. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets; bake at 350° for 5 minutes. 3. Remove cookie sheets from oven, and quickly make an indention in the center of each cookie with the end of a wooden spoon handle. Return to oven, and bake an additional 8 minutes. Cool slightly on cookie sheets; remove cookies to wire racks, and cool completely. Fill the center of each cookie with jelly. |
