Pecan Cookies

I didn't have much luck in the kitchen this time. The first time I've tried to make these cookies I burned nuts instead of roasting them (not good). The second time I've tried to make these cookies I've mistaken salt with sugar and I'm telling you... 20 cookies don't need 100 g of salt (really not good). The third trial was successful though. And these Pecan Cookies are definitely worth trying. The recipe is simple and they're delicious as long as you follow the recipe :)

Pecan Cookies

1 cup pecans

100 g unsalted butter

1/3 cup sugar

1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 tsp salt

1 1/3 cup all-purpose flour

Roast pecan nuts in the oven to 180 C for 7 minutes (and that's absolutely enough... I've checked it for you). 
Beat butter, sugar, salt and vanilla extract together until well mixed, add flour and beat it for 1-2 more minutes. When nuts are roasted and cooled blend them into tiny pieces (you can also finely chop them). Throw chopped roasted pecans to the dough and knead it fast. Form little dough balls and press them on baking paper to form cookies, cookies, cookies! Sprinkle tiny little bit of confectioners sugar on cookies and bake at 190 C until they become golden. 
Something to listen to while cookies are in the oven:
