1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup packed dark-brown sugar
1 large egg yolk
2/3 cup finely chopped toasted pecans (about 2 ounces)
Pecan halves, for decorating

Steps:

Put butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix on medium speed until smooth, about 3 minutes. Mix in egg yolk until combined. Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture;mix until combined. Mix in chopped pecans.
  • Using a 1 1/4-inch ice cream scoop, drop batter onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper, spacing about 3 inches apart. Press 1 pecan half into the center of each. Bake cookies, rotating sheets halfway through, until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool completely on sheets on wire racks.

I'm allergic to pecans. Can I substitute another nut, like walnuts or almonds?

I found these cookies to be a bit dry. I think I would add a little more butter to the dough next time.
