This cookie recipe comes from one of those classic Pillsbury cookbooks that you find at the grocery checkouts. I was easily distracted by them in the past and have quite a collection! This particular cookie was one of the top favorites at Christmas time. Ingredients:
1 cup sugar |
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar |
3/4 cup margarine or butter, softened |
2 eggs |
2 t water |
1 tsp vanilla |
3 cups flour |
1 tsp baking soda |
1/2 tsp salt |
2 (6 oz.) chocolate mint candy wafers |
bag of pecans |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine sugar, brown sugar, margarine, eggs, water, and vanilla. 2. Mix well. 3. Stir in the 3 cups of flour, baking soda and salt. 4. Mix well. 5. Chill the dough for at least 2 hours. 6. Enclose each wafer in about 1 tablespoon of the dough. 7. Place the cookies 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. 8. Top each with a pecan half. 9. Bake at 375 degrees for 7-9 minutes. 10. Makes 5 dozen cookies. |
