My Nana makes these and there are always some stored in the freezer. She would pick up pecans along her evening walk in San Antonio, and Papa would shell them for her, and into these cookies they would go.
Cream together sugar, cream cheese and butter in your mixer. Add flour and mix well. Add vanilla. Stir in chopped pecans.
Drop by spoonfuls (about a tablespoonful of dough) onto an ungreased cookie sheet. I use parchment paper underneath. Bake at 350 to 375 degrees for 9 to 12 minutes until the edges begin to turn light brown.
Now, if they are left in a bit longer, they will be crispy and crunchy, which is also delicious.
Serve up with a cold glass of milk. These freeze well, and are often delicious straight out of the freezer. Ask me how I know!
