Delicious and easy to make for beginners (like me lol). I used Earth Balance Vegan Buttery Sticks (I am not vegan though, just curious what stuff tastes like.) instead of butter/margarine and it still tasted good. I didn't care much for the pecans, so I only put one on top of each cookie. They stay on the cookie pretty well as long as you push it in deep enough onto the cookie dough They would probably taste even better if dried strawberries/blueberries were substituted for the pecans.

i love these cookies! They are delious! I made a few ajustments and used butter flavored crisco instead of the butter to do this use 1 stick crisco and add 6 tbsp of water. i also did not add the nuts on top just in the cookie itself and rolled it in choclate sprinkles.

I love these cookies! The cream cheese adds an extra special something... I love the pecans on them, and they look so pretty! This recipe has become one of the cookies I make every year! Thanks for sharing!

These so yummy, I made them for my family Christmas cookie exchange although they didn't quite come out in circles.

These are rather a flat tasting cookie. Maybe appealing to someone drinking coffee but definitely not a keeper with the grandchildren or husband.

giving 5 stars for the cookie potential i've made an orange butter cookie very similar to this without the cream cheese. i can't wait to try this version. one hint that i do; when making your log; put your colored sugar on a piece of waxed paper. form a cookie log with your hands and then lengthen the log by rolling in the sugar. twist the ends of the waxed paper with the roll inside and refrigerate or freeze until ready to use. mary
