The Best Pecan Meltaways Ever! image

From the January 2010 Taste of Home magazine by Alberta Kay. Make the dough ahead of time and allow time for it to chill. The proportions are a bit different than other recipes posted. These sound like the wonderful cookies my mother used to make. Will let you know soon.

These pecan meltaways are a great make-ahead cookie. I made them a few days ahead of time and they were still perfect when I served them.
