Pecan Crisps
This is Gen’s recipe. She made these for our 1999 Christmas Eve shin-dig, and every one of these got eaten!
Ingredients
2 cups self-rising flour
1 cup sugar
1 3/4 sticks of butter or margarine
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 egg (separated)
Lots of pecans – chopped
Preheat oven to 350F.
Cream sugar and butter together. Add in egg yolk. Add dry ingredients and pat in a pan. This makes a stiff dough. Top with pecans. Brush top with the egg white. Bake for 20 or 25 minutes; cut immediately while cookie is warm. Gen suggests cutting in squares, triangles, or your own design.
