Melt-in-your-mouth【Pecan Shortbread Cookies】
by MaomaoMom
Both my son and husband loved the Melt-in-the-mouth shortbread cookies. Today, I made these wonderful cookies with addition of pecans. Instead of using all-purpose flour, I accidentally used cake&pastry flour. Amazingly, these cookies turn out to be so crispy, truly melting in your mouth.

4) 1 tsp vanilla extract;
Topping:
4) 1/3 cup icing sugar (50g).
Directions:

6: Cool completely then sprinkle some icing sugar on top (Picture 12) before serving.
One thing I’ve noticed is the fact there are plenty of myths regarding the finance institutions intentions while talking about home foreclosure. One misconception in particular is the fact the bank wishes to have your house. Your banker wants your cash, not the house. They want the amount of money they lent you with interest. Keeping away from the bank will draw any foreclosed realization. Thanks for your posting.
I delight in, cause I discovered just what I used to be having a look for. You’ve ended my four day long hunt! God Bless you man. Have a nice day. Bye
