Chocolate Pecan Cookies
These are great for when you just want something different!
FYI: I somehow did not have the camera on when getting the chocolate ready and added to the cookies. Please see the directions below and I'm sorry for the mistake.
*******************
Needed to make
* 1/2 cup plus 1 Tablespoon butter, softened
* 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
* 1 egg yolk
* 1 egg white, lightly beaten
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1 cup flour
* 3/4 cup finely chopped pecans (or nut topping)
* 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Step 1: In a mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar. Beat in the egg yolk and vanilla. Gradually add the flour, mix well. Cover and refrigerate for about 2 hours.
Step 2: Roll dough into 1-inch balls. Dip in egg white, then coat with the pecans. Place on a greased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart.
Step 3: Using the pad of your thumb, make a 1/2 inch indentation in the center of each ball. Bake at 325 for 10 minutes. Using a spoon, press each indentation down again and bake for another 10-15 minutes or until pecans are golden brown. Remove to a wire rack to cool.
Step 4: Using a microwave safe bowl, heat the chocolate and remaining butter until melted, stir until well blended. Spoon into each cookie.
