1 c Butter
2 c Light brown sugar
2 Eggs; beaten
3 c Flour
3 1/2 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Salt
1 c Chopped pecans
1 ts Vanilla
Cream butter with sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs and beat until
light again. Sift flour with baking powder and salt and work thoroughly
into creamed mixture. Stir in nuts and vanilla. Shape into long 1-1/4-inch
rolls. Wrap in waxed paper, and chill at least overnight. The longer you
chill, the better the cookies. Slice the dough as thin as possible and
place on greased baking sheet. Bake at 375 for about 8 minutes. Makes 8-10
dozen.
