Admits Gladys De Boer, field editor from Castleford, Idaho, I don't have patience for decorating, so I look for tasty recipes with interesting shapes and textures, like this cookie. Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
1 cup sugar |
1 egg, separated |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
pinch salt |
1/2 cup chopped pecans |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add egg yolk and vanilla; mix well. Combine flour, cinnamon and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture.
2. Spoon into a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Cover dough with plastic wrap and press evenly into pan; remove wrap.
3. In a small bowl, beat egg white until foamy; brush over dough. Sprinkle with pecans.
4. Bake at 300° for 30 minutes or until lightly browned. Cut into 1-1/2-in. diamond shapes while warm. Yield: about 6 dozen.
