Time 1h15m

Yield Makes 55

Number Of Ingredients 7

2/3 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 cup light corn syrup
Salt
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
1 cup pecans, finely chopped
2/3 cup cake flour (spooned and leveled)

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, heat sugar, butter, corn syrup, and a pinch of salt over medium, stirring, until sugar has dissolved, about 7 minutes.
  • Remove pan from heat; stir in orange zest, pecans, and flour. Transfer to a bowl; cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until dough is firm, about 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two large baking sheets with parchment. Drop dough by teaspoons, about 2 inches apart, onto sheets (6 per sheet); roll into balls.
  • Bake until cookies are golden brown (they will harden as they cool), 9 to 10 minutes. Transfer cookies on parchment to a wire rack. Repeat with remaining dough. Let cookies cool completely.

These are the best pecan lace cookies I've ever had. They're crispy and flavorful, and the pecan flavor is just right.

I'm not a huge fan of nuts, but I loved these cookies. The pecan flavor is subtle and it pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the cookie.

I had a hard time finding pecan halves, so I used chopped pecans instead. The cookies still turned out great.

I love how versatile these cookies are. I've added chocolate chips, nuts, and even dried fruit to them. They always turn out great.
