Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup finely chopped pecans
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add the flour, chopped pecans, vanilla extract, and salt to the bowl. Mix until all the ingredients are well combined and a smooth dough forms.
4. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies turn golden brown around the edges.
6. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes. They will be soft and fragile when hot, but will firm up as they cool.
7. Carefully transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Repeat with the remaining dough until all the cookies are baked.
9. Once cooled, store the pecan lace cookies in an airtight container to maintain their crispness.
