Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla and salt.

  • Transfer to wire racks, and let cool.
