Heart Cookies

Ingredients:
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup butter; softened
1/2 cup ground toasted pecans
1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

1. Combine all the ingredients in a medium mixing bowl, blending well. Wrap dough in a plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
2. preheat oven to 350. On a lightly flavored surface, use a floured rolling pin to roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness.
3. Using a 1-inch wide heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut out dough. Transfer cookies to ungreased baking sheets.
4. Bake 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans and cool on wire racks.

*Notes:
Well, the only heart-shaped cookie i had was the one in the picture. Unfortunately, I don’t own any heart-shaped cookie cutters  so i have a couple snowmen, and reindeer, but the rest are just circles cause it was easier to make them that way. haha. they’re pretty good.
