Mama's Pecan Finger Cookies

Posted at http://mynew30.blogspot.com/

1 pound Land O'Lakes unsalted butter
8 Tablespoons Powdered Sugar
5 ½ cups White Lily all purpose flour
8 Tablespoons Watkins vanilla
2 cups of chopped pecans
Additional powdered sugar for rolling finished cookie

Cream butter, add sugar, blend together and add remaining ingredients, mixing well. Chill dough for about 10 minutes to make it easier to handle. Shape into small finger shaped logs and bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes or until lightly browned. May also bend and shape into a crescent shape for Crescent Cookies, or roll into a ball for Snowball Cookies.

Let cool slightly so that you can handle them but while still warm, roll in the extra powdered sugar to coat; re-roll in the powdered sugar several times if desired. I usually roll mine two or three times. Set aside to cool completely before storing.
