Best 2 Honey Butterscotch Fondue With Salted Pecan Cookies Recipes

PECAN-RYE COOKIES

Steps:

• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Spread the pecans on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until lightly toasted, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool completely. Set 24 whole pecans aside for topping and finely chop the rest; transfer to a bowl. Pour 2 tablespoons whiskey over the chopped nuts, stir to coat and let sit until almost all the whiskey is absorbed, at least 10 minutes.
• Whisk the rye flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter and brown sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in the pecan-whiskey mixture and the vanilla until just combined. Reduce the mixer speed to low; beat in the flour mixture until combined.
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll tablespoonfuls of dough into balls, squeezing the dough together if it is crumbly. Arrange 2 inches apart on the prepared pans and press a pecan into the top of each.
• Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cookies are just set around the edges but the centers are still soft, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool completely on the pans.
• Make the glaze: Whisk the confectioners' sugar, the remaining 2 teaspoons whiskey and 2 teaspoons water in a small bowl until smooth and thick. Gradually stir in up to 1 more teaspoon water to thin if necessary. Drizzle over the cookies; let set 10 to 15 minutes.
