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.
Prepare time: 30 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes

3) 1 cup butter (240g) room temperature, 10 tbs icing sugar (80 g);
4) 1 tsp vanilla extract;
Topping:
4) 1/3 cup icing sugar (50g).
Directions:
1: Place all ingredients of Ingredient 1) in a bowl and mix well with a fork (Picture 1). Place pecans in a plastic bag, seal and crush with a rolling pin to fine pieces. Add to the flour mixture (Picture 2) and mix well.
2: Place all ingredients of Ingredient 3) in a bowl (Picture 3). Beat with an electric handheld mixer at high speed until light and fluffy (Picture 4). Add 1 tsp vanilla extract (Picture 5), beat at high speed for another 30 seconds. Add flour and pecan mixture (Picture 6) and beat until mixture resembles moist crumbs (Picture 7).
Preheat oven to 350F.
4: When dough is firm, divide into two equal portions. Roll each half on a floured surface into a 1.5-cm diameter log. Cut every 1.4 cm into 20 pieces (Picture 10). Roll inot balls with your palms and place them on a parchment paper lined baking sheet (Picture 11). Space them 1.5 cm apart.
6: Cool completely then sprinkle some icing sugar on top (Picture 12) before serving.
Thanks for sharing excellent informations. Your website is so cool. I’m impressed by the details that you’ve on this site. It reveals how nicely you perceive this subject. Bookmarked this website page, will come back for more articles. You, my friend, ROCK! I found simply the information I already searched all over the place and simply couldn’t come across.

Thanks for the recommendations on credit repair on this blog. The thing I would advice people is to give up the actual mentality that they buy now and pay back later. Being a society we tend to make this happen for many things. This includes trips, furniture, along with items we wish. However, it is advisable to separate a person’s wants out of the needs. When you’re working to boost your credit score you have to make some trade-offs. For example it is possible to shop online to save money or you can turn to second hand outlets instead of pricey department stores regarding clothing.
I was recommended this website by my cousin. I’m not sure whether this post is written by him as nobody else know such detailed about my trouble. You’re incredible! Thanks!
One thing I would really like to comment on is that fat reduction plan fast can be performed by the perfect diet and exercise. Someone’s size not only affects the look, but also the general quality of life. Self-esteem, melancholy, health risks, and physical abilities are affected in excess weight. It is possible to make everything right and still gain. If this happens, a condition may be the root cause. While a lot food rather than enough exercising are usually the culprit, common medical ailments and traditionally used prescriptions can easily greatly amplify size. Thanks for your post here.
