Servings: 36 serving
Calories: 89kcal
Cost: 15
Ingredients
- 12 Tbs Butter no substitutes (softened)
- ¼ Cup Canola Oil
- ½ Cup Sugar
- 1 Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
- ½ teaspoon Cream of Tartar
- ¾ teaspoon Salt
- 1 Cup Pecan Cookies Pieces divided (see note)
- 2 Cups Flour
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Measure out ½ cup of the pecans and pulse them in a food processor until they are finely ground. Be careful not to process them into nut butter, though. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, cream the butter, vegetable oil, and sugar.
- Add the egg and vanilla.
- Add the baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt. Mix well.
- Stir in the ½ cup ground pecans and the remaining ½ cup pecan pieces.
- Stir in the flour, mixing well.
- Scoop the dough out onto the prepared baking sheets by the tablespoonful. Slightly flatten each ball of dough. I use the lightly floured bottom of a juice glass.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 12-14 minutes. The bottom edges should be lightly browned. Cool and eat!
Notes
Pecan chips will work fine, but you will need to chop them up finer.
