(by Shirley McNevich)
1/2 cup softened butter
1 cup firmly packed Domino's dark brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
3/4 cup flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
In a mixer, beat butter and sugar together. Add vanilla and egg; beat until light and fluffy. Add sifted flour, baking powder, salt and chopped pecans--beat well. Drop by scant teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake at 400 degrees for about 5 minutes--if you make the cookies too big they will take longer to bake. Cool before removing from cookie sheets.
