the use of a cake mix simplifies this recipe and adds to great taste I usually toast nuts in recipes..I believe it brings out their nuttiness?! Ingredients:
18 1/4 ounces white cake mix |
1 large egg |
1/2 cup butter, melted |
1 tablespoon water |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 1/2 cups pecans, chopped, toasted |
Directions:
1. In large mixing bowl, combine cake mix, egg, melted butter, water and vanilla.
2. Stir with wooden spoon to blend.
3. Work in nuts with your hands to form a smooth dough.
4. Divide dough in half. Shape each half into a 2 thick log.
5. wrap in plastic wrap or waxed paper and chill overnight in refrigerator.
6. Cut dough into 1/8 thick slics.
7. Place on a greased, sprayed on lined with parchment paper cookie sheet.
8. Preheat oven to 375*.
9. Bake one sheet at a time for 7-9 minutes or light browned.
10. Cool 1 minute on baking sheet or until firm.then transfer cookies to wire rack and cool completely.
11. When I make these around the Christmas holiday.pistachio nuts give it an unusual look and the green is pretty for that holiday.
12. Sometimes I roll the dough edges in colored sugar or nuts for an attractive edge around the cookie.
