PECAN LACE COOKIES

Pecan Lace Cookies
These deliciously nutty, wafer-like cookies are easy to make and perfect to impress your guests.

INGREDIENTS:

½ cup pecan halves
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 oz (1/2 stick, or 55gr) unsalted butter, room temperature
¼ cup brown sugar
¼ cup (4 tablespoons) light corn syrup
DIRECTIONS:

Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C).
Finely chop the pecans. In a small bowl, mix together finely chopped walnuts with flour.
In medium saucepan, melt butter, brown sugar and corn syrup on medium heat. Bring it to boil. Remove from heat, and add pecan/flour mixture. Mix well. Transfer to a small bowl and let it cool slightly stirring occasionally. The mixture will harden in this process.
Divide the mixture into 12 equal parts like so. It will help you to make equal size cookies. With wet hands, shape the dough into about 1-inch balls. Place on baking sheet at least 3 inches apart.
Bake the cookies for about 10-12 minutes. Cool on wire racks for 2-3 minutes.
While the cookies are still flexible, flip the cookies with spatula and roll them into tubes. Place the shaped cookies on wire rack to cool completely.
