Steps:
- Cream to gether butter and sugar until smooth.
- Beat in water and vanilla.
- Stir in the flour and pecans until well blended (I use the mixer).
- Cover dough and chill at least 4 hours (can be chilled over night).
- Preheat oven 325 degrees.
- Shape dough into walnut sized balls or cresents.
- Place 2 inches apart onto cookie sheets.
- Bake for 18 to 20 minutes.
- Roll in powdered sugar while still warm.
- I like to double roll them in the powdered sugar.
Tips:
- Use a good quality cake mix. A higher quality cake mix will result in a better tasting cookie.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape and prevent them from becoming soggy.
