Ingredients

Instructions

  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set it aside.

  • Allow it to boil without stirring.
  • After a minute, remove the mixture from heat and add the powdered sugar. Whisk quickly until smooth.
  • Add in the vanilla and pecans and stir until fully incorporated.
  • Allow the mixture to cool slightly for a minute or so. Don’t walk away!
  • Use a cookie scoop to drop Tablespoons of the pecan mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.
