Ingredients
-
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
-
1 cup vegetable oil
-
1 cup white sugar
-
1 cup sifted confectioners' sugar
-
2 large eggs
-
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
-
4 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 teaspoon baking soda
-
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
-
1 teaspoon salt
-
1 cup chopped pecans
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
-
Cream butter, oil, white sugar, and confectioners' sugar together in a large bowl using an electric mixer until smooth. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time. Stir in vanilla extract.
-
Combine flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt in a separate bowl. Stir gradually into the butter mixture. Stir in pecans.
-
Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place onto ungreased cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, 12 to 14 minutes.
-
Remove from cookie sheets and cool completely on wire racks, 20 to 30 minutes.
Cook's Notes:
I've also rolled the cookies in white sugar before baking.
Chopped dried cranberries are a great alternative to the pecans.
You could also dust these cookies with powdered sugar once out of the oven.
