I made these at Christmas, and they were a huge hit!! They are a nice sturdy cookie that packs and ships well too!

I think that toasting the nuts, adds a wonderful flavor, that makes this cookie different from others like it. I relly like it!!

Absolutely DELICIOUS! I made them as a treat for my boyfriend, and he gobbled up almost the entire recipe. I'm making them again for Thanksgiving.

eh - this recipe was ok - maybe I toasted the nuts wrong - the dough smelled/tasted great - but the nuts - eh - perhaps 5 minutes to toast is too long? I might try this again because it seemed so promising - might be user error on my part.

This recipe is great! I have been making them for a couple of years now for my husband, and they are his favorite. If you turn down the oven temperature to 350, the cookies are soft and chewy. People who don't even like nuts love these cookies. I will be using this recipe for many years to come.

I make the same cookies, but instead of putting in whole pecans I chop them up real fine and add about 3/4cup.

Very good cookie, changed temp to 350 and cookies came out softer!

Based on other reviews, I decreased the temp to 350 and ground the pecans after measuring. They turned out very tasty! I liked them cooked the full time; I tried some shorter but the gooey taste didn't work well with these.
