King Ranch Polvorones

Taken from a bag of king ranch young pecans and placed here for safe keeping to make for a cookie bake at my daughters school.

Pre heat oven to 325 degrees.

Cream butter , sugar , butter-nut flavoring until fluffy.

Sift flour and salt and add to creamed mixture , blending throughly.

Add young pecans and mix well.

Shape into 1 inch balls and place on baking pan.

Bake at 325 for 20 minutes.

Do not brown.

Cool , then roll in powdered sugar.

For chocolate cookies: add 1 / 4 cup cocoa to the flour mixture and use vanilla instead of the butter-nut flavoring.
