Recipe from Land 'O Lakes. I made these one Sunday afternoon for an impromtu dinner party and they were a hit. I figured now's the season for eggnog! Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/4 teaspoon rum extract |
2 1/3 cups flour |
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/3 cup chopped pecans |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350*F.
2. Cream the butter and 1 cup of the powdered sugar in a large bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy.
3. Add the vanilla and rum extracts; blend well.
4. Reduce mixer speed to low and add the flour, nutmeg, and salt; beat just until combined. (mixture will be dry and crumbly.).
5. Stir in the pecans by hand.
6. Shape dough into 1 balls; space 1 apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
7. Bake 13-16 minutes, or until cookies are set.
8. Cool on wire racks 10 minutes; roll in remaining powdered sugar while cookies are still warm.
