1
Process the pecans in a food processor until finely ground with no big chunks remaining.
2
In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, 1/2 cup powdered sugar, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
3
Stir in the salt and vanilla extract gently.
4
Gradually beat in the flour, a half cup at a time, until fully incorporated.
5
Stir in the ground pecans until just combined.
6
Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes to make it easier to handle.
BAKING
7
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
8
Use a 1.5 tablespoon-sized cookie scoop to shape the dough into balls and place them on the baking sheet, spaced it about 1 inch apart.
9
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the bottoms are just lightly golden beige in color.
FINISHING
10
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes.
11
Place 1 cup of powdered sugar in a large bowl, roll each cooked cookie in the sugar to coat and move them to a wire rack to cool completely.
12
Once completely cooled, roll the cookies in the powdered sugar one more time for a final snowy coat. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container.
