845 - Pecan Cheesecake Cookies #
(by Shirley McNevich)
1/2 cup softened butter
1 - 3oz. package Philadelphia cream cheese
1 cup white sugar
1 cup flour
1/2 cup chopped pecans
In a mixer add cream cheese, softened butter and white sugar--beat. Add flour--beat. Remove bowl from mixer, add chopped pecans and stir with a wooden spoon. Make dough into 1" dough balls with your hands. Drop dough balls on to ungreased cookie sheets. Spray the bottom of a drinking glass with Pam, then press down on each dough ball to flatten into a 2" round cookie. Bake at 375 degrees for 11-13 minutes. Cool the cookies at least 2 minutes on the cookie sheets before removing with a spatula. Cookies should be chewy--if they are not, you baked them too long. Good idea to do a test cookie on this one.
