Categories: Cookies
Yield: 16 servings
3/4 c Butter or margarine
3/4 c Brown sugar; packed
1 Egg yolk
1 ts Vanilla
1-1/2 c All-purpose flour
3/4 c Dairy sour cream
1/4 c Brown sugar; packed
1/2 ts Vanilla
16 Pecan halves; toasted
1/2 c Pecan, toasted; chopped
Beat the butter or margarine in a large mixing bowl with an electric
mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add the 3/4 cup brown sugar
and beat till combined. Beat in egg yolk and the 1 teaspoon vanilla till
combined. Beat in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer. Stir
in any remaining flour with a wooden spoon.
Spread dough in a lightly greased 12-inch pizza pan, slightly
building up the edge. Bake in a 350°F oven for 20 minutes or till golden.
Meanwhile, stir together sour cream, the 1/4 cup brown sugar, and the
1/2 tsp. vanilla in a small mixing bowl. Immediately spread over hot
crust to within 1/2 inch of edge. Arrange pecan halves around edge of
crust. Sprinkle with the chopped pecans. Cool thoroughly in pan on a wire
rack; topping will set as it cools. Cut into wedges; serve when cooled.
Refrigerate leftovers.
