Method

  • 1. Pre-heat the oven to 190 C, fan 175 C, gas mark 5. In a food processor, blitz the pecan nuts until fine.

  • 2. In a large bowl, cream together the Clover Lighter and icing sugar with a wooden spoon. Add the vanilla extract and the flour and mix well. Finally, combine the ground pecan nuts and mix to combine. Bring the cookie dough together with your hands.

  • 3. Divide the dough into 32 pieces. Roll each piece into a walnut size round and place them on two large un-greased baking trays leaving some space in between each ball. Flatten each round slightly with your thumb to make a dip in the middle. Sprinkle the pine nuts over and lightly press into the dough.

  • 4. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until golden. Leave on the trays for 5 minutes and then remove to cool on a wire rack. Dredge with icing sugar.
