Delicious! Perfect change from making regular pecan sandies. One of the first cookies to go around the holidays. These are cute little round cookies that are white on the outside and chocolate on the inside.
Christmas Chocolate Pecan Sandies
Ingredients:
- 1 cup butter, room temperature
- 4 tablespoons white sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
