INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine the butter,
sugars, baking powder, egg, maple extract and vanilla extract; beat
with an electric mixer until fluffy, scraping the sides of the bowl
several times. With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour,
beating just until blended. Stir in the pecans. Shape level
measuring tablespoonfuls of dough into 1 1/4-inch balls. Place 1 inch
apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Press a pecan half into the top of
each ball. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cookies look dry
and the bottoms are lightly browned. Cool on the cookie sheets on wire
racks for 1 to 2 minutes, then remove to racks to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Just before
serving, dust with powdered sugar. Penny Halsey (ATBN65B). Recipe By
