INGREDIENTS
- 1 c Butter or margarine -; (2
- 2 c All-purpose flour
- 1/2 c Finely chopped pecans
- 6 oz Semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 ts Vanilla
- 1/2 c Sifted powdered sugar; sift
- 1 tb Shortening
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. With electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until fluffy. Add vanilla. Gradually add flour. Mix well. Shape dough into sticks about 2 1/2 inches long, 1/2-inch wide and 1/2-inch thick. Place on ungreased cookie sheets. Flatten 3/4 of each cookie lengthwise with fork to 1/4-inch thickness, leaving the patterns of the fork tines in the dough. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until done. Remove to wire racks to cool. Combine chocolate chips and shortening; microwave on high power 45 to 60 seconds, or until melted. Or melt in top of double boiler or in a heavy-bottomed pan. Put chopped pecans in a small cup or bowl. Dip unflattened end of each cookie in chocolate mixture; dip into chopped pecans. Place on waxed paper until firm. Store in airtight containers between layers of waxed paper. These cookies freeze well. Yields 3 to 4 dozen cookies. Testers note: Dough might appear slightly dry when mixing; I used my hands to knead in the last 1/2 cup flour. Wonderfully tender, melt-in-your-mouth cookies. Beautiful on a cookie tray.
