This cookie recipe is just perfect when you need a sweet treat that is not fussy. It has a few ingredients, very few steps and they bake in no time. The result, however, is nothing short of spectacular. The cookies crumble in your mouth and the biggest challenge is knowing when to stop having more.

The cookies are not too sweet and can be served without dusting them with icing sugar. For those of us who like their cookies to be sweet, a generous dusting of icing sugar will do the trick and take care of the sweet craving.

The cookies have a rich and buttery flavour even though we used a combination of butter and oil. If you wish, you can use butter only but we believe it is not necessary to do so.

    These taste really good. I didn’t have pecan. So I used ground pistachio with found peanuts and it is so easy to make. And really nice even withouth powdered sugar! Great job
