INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup chopped pecans

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare cookie sheets by covering with parchment.
  2. In a medium saucepan, heat the corn syrup, shortening and brown sugar over medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture comes to a boil. In a small bowl toss together the flour and nuts; stir into the saucepan mixture, and remove from the heat.
  3. Keep the batter warm by setting over a pan of hot water. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets. Cookies should be at least 3 inches apart. Bake for about 5 minutes, until the center of the cookie is set. Let the cookies set before removing from the baking sheets.
