 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1/2  c             Sifted confectioners sugar
  1      c             Soft butter or margarine
    1/2  t             Salt
  1      tb            Vanilla
  2      c             Sifted flour
  1      c             Finely chopped pecans

 Sift the confectioners sugar and measure. Beat it, the butter, salt   and
vanilla together until fluffy.      Sift the flour onto a square of waxed
paper or into a bowl and then   measure. Stir the sifted flour and pecans
into the confectioners   sugar mixture. Mix well. Chill in the refrigerator
at least an hour   so dough will shape easily.      When you are ready to
bake the cookies, start heating the oven to   350F.      Shape the chilled
dough into small balls. Place them 3 inches apart   on an ungreased baking
sheet. Press a small hole in the centre of   each ball with your thumb tip.
    Bake on the rack in the centre of your oven about 15 minutes, or   until
lightly browned and set. Remove frmo oven and spread cookies   on rack to
cool.
