Pecan puffs recipe

Pecan puffs recipe

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

Directions:
Heat the oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2.
Line a baking sheet with baking parchment or a reusable baking liner.
Grind the nuts to a powder in a food processor or coffee grinder and leave on one side
Beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the vanilla extract, beat in the nuts, and finally stir in the flour
Break off small lumps of the mixture and roll into balls - about 1cm diameter using slightly damp hands.
Put the balls on the baking tray - leaving a gap between each one.
Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until golden.
Leave the biscuits to cool on the tray for a couple of minutes.
Keep the oven on
Sift the icing sugar onto a plate and roll the puffs in the sugar before returning them to the baking sheet.
Return the tray to the oven for 1-2 minutes so the icing sugar 'sets'
Leave them to cool completely and store in an airtight container
