Yield 72

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ cup butter
½ cup margarine
¼ cup confectioners' sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans
1 ½ cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons hot water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
  • In a medium bowl, cream the butter, margarine and confectioners' sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in the vanilla. Add the flour and mix until just blended. Do not overmix.
  • Roll dough into 1 inch balls. Place cookies 2 inches apart into prepared cookie sheets. Make a slight indentation in the center. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven. Cookies should be lightly browned. Cool slightly and frost the center of each cookie.
  • To make the icing, combine the confectioners' sugar, cocoa and vanilla in a small bowl. Stir in the hot water 1 tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached. Drizzle the icing from the tip of a knife or spoon onto the center of each cookie. Allow the cookies time to set up before serving.

These cookies are delicious, but they're a bit too rich for me. I think I'll cut the butter in half next time.

I'm allergic to peanuts, so I substituted almond butter in this recipe. The cookies turned out great!

I would have liked these cookies more if they had been a little more chewy. They were a bit too crispy for my taste.
