PECAN KISSES

The year, 1975, pregnant and EXPECTING that around Christmas I wouldn't be baking. Daughter born, Dec. 20th. I decided to bake gifts ahead of time & freeze. Found this recipe in my husband's mom's older than me cookbook. I managed to squeeze in more pecans in my recipe. Tried freezing them to keep kids from eating, that didn't...

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 egg whites
1 c light brown sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 c or more pecan halves

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Beat Egg Whites until peaks form. Add the Brown Sugar gradually, & Vanilla Extract, as you use your electric mixer. For the Pecans you gently STIR them in, to coat well.
  • 2. At this point you can use parchment paper on the cookie sheet, or spray cookie sheet with Pam or just lightly coat with some vegetable oil, very lightly. Wipe off excess. This will help in the pecans once cooked less likely to stick. Oh and now they sell something just for not sticking and baking.
  • 3. Next you are going to do the hardest part...laying each coated pecan on the cookie sheet with some room in between. Bake approximately 30 minutes until lightly browned. Park cookie sheet on a cookie rack to cool a bit. Easy with the spatula getting them off the cookie sheet. Seal in an airtight container.
  • 4. You can freeze these to wait on the holiday but trust me, they are just as good eaten straight out of the freezer. If any broken pieces of pecans, no sweat, just use a spoon and spoon up a wad of a size that works for you and bake away. The pecan halves makes for a nice presentation and shows effort on your part.

Categories     Nuts

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 tsp vanilla
2 large egg whites
3/4 c brown sugar
2 c pecan halves

Steps:

  • 1. Beat egg whites until stiff. Gradually add brown sugar and vanilla. Fold in pecans. Coat each pecan half well. Put on buttered cookie sheet about 1 inch apart. Don't let them touch. Bake in preheated 250 degree oven for 30 minutes. Turn oven off and don't open door for 30 minutes more. Put in airtight container. Can freeze

Tips:

  • To ensure your pecan kisses have a smooth and creamy texture, use high-quality butter and cream cheese that are softened to room temperature.
  • Make sure to thoroughly mix the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the mixture and give the cookies a delicate crumb.
  • Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough to ensure uniform cookies. This will also help prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
  • To achieve a perfectly round shape, roll the dough balls between your palms before placing them on the baking sheet.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to turn golden brown. Overbaking will result in dry and crumbly cookies.
  • Allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack. This will help prevent them from breaking.
  • For an extra special touch, drizzle the cookies with melted chocolate or caramel sauce before serving.

Conclusion:

Pecan kisses are a delightful and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their buttery shortbread crust and sweet, chewy pecan filling, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. Whether you're serving them at a holiday party or enjoying them as a sweet snack, pecan kisses are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
