Grandma's Pecan Balls (from Aunt Katie)

Total Time: 40 mins Preparation Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

• 1 cup flour, all purpose
• 1 cup ground pecans
• 1/2 cup butter, unsalted
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• superfine sugar, for rolling (aka fruit sugar) or icing sugar

Recipe

• 1 preheat oven to 350.
• 2 cream butter with sugar.
• 3 add flour and pecans, mix well.
• 4 roll into balls, about the size of a large gumball, and place on a cookie sheet (i prefer to line mine with parchment, but i'm sure cooking spray would do.).
• 5 bake at 350 for 20 minutes, or until very lightly browned.
• 6 while still warm, roll in superfine sugar - this is important because the dough does not have much sugar.
