The presentation isn't all that attractive. There is so much flour, it takes up most of the jar. I would also suggest putting the pecans after the white sugar so the flour doesn't leak through them.

I made these cookies and while they were good I thought that they were too much like pecan sandies because they end up being a drier cookie.

I used to have this recipe. I have been looking for it again. I do two things different. I leave them in balls to bake them. After they a completly cooled I roll them in powdered sugar.

A unique delight of a cookie worth tasting. I wasn't sure how it would be with potato chips, but the end result was a pleasant surprise. The only suggestion I received was to add chocolate chips to them to give another flavor variation.
