Prep Time: 15 minutes minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes minutes
Servings: 18 cookies
- 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
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.
With mixer on low, gradually add flour, beating just until combined. Fold in pecans.
Roll dough into 1 1/2-inch balls. Place on 2 baking sheets, about 2 to 2 1/2 inches apart. With the palm of your hand, lightly flatten each ball.
Bake cookies until golden brown, about 15 to 17 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through.
Transfer to wire racks, and let cool.
