| Cream butter until soft; add brown sugar. Add egg yolks and beat until light. Blend in the sifted flour. Form 1-inch balls. Roll balls into egg whites, then into chopped pecans. Put on a greased cookie sheet and make a thumbprint in the middle of the cookie. Bake at 300 degrees for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and make the thumbprint impression again. Bake for an additional 15 minutes. Cool cookies completely on cookie sheet. Add preserves into the thumbprint. Note: These cookies tend to spread ... Make sure you use a cool cookie sheet. |
