Snowball Cookies

Ingredients:
butter, without salt
sugars, granulated
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
nuts, pecans

Directions:
Cream butter and 3 tablespoons confectiner's sugar until fluffy in a medium-size bowl.
Stir in flour gradually, then pecans until well blended.
Chill several hours or until firm enough to handle.
Roll dough, a teaspoonful at a time, into marble sized balls between palms of hands.
Place two inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake in a slow (325 degrees) oven 20 minutes, or until lightly golden.
Cool on cookie sheets 2 - 3 minutes, remove carefully.
Put remaining confectioner's sugar in a bowl and carefully roll still warm cookies to make a generous white coating.
Cool completely.
Store with waxed paper or transparent wrap between layers in container with tip fitting cover.
