Pecan Sandies

…you know, like Keebler makes. Yummmm. Sadly, one of the more expensive cookies. But wait—we’ve found the recipe!

Pretty darn easy too. I had no idea. So–prepare to be thrilled…

Ingredients

1 cup butter

1 cup sugar

1 cup powdered sugar

2 eggs

2 tsp. vanilla

1/2 tsp. salt

1 tsp. baking soda

3-1/2 cups flour

1 cup pecans–finely chopped

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Measure dry ingredients together and set aside. Beat butter and sugars together until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla  and mix well. Add dry ingredients slowly and mix well, then add nuts. Scoop or roll dough into 1 inch balls and place on ungreased cookie sheet. If you like your Sandies crunchy then flatten each one with the bottom of a glass dipped in cold water. If you like them softer then leave them alone. Bake for about 12-14 minutes.

Milk and cookies and saving tons of money all at the same time! Wahooooo!

Unless, of course, you open the door to those cute little Girl Scouts that are out and about this time of year.
