Cream Cheese Finger Cookies

By: Jeanne Voss 
"These melt-in-your-mouth cookies are one of my mom's specialties. Made with cream cheese and butter, they're very rich...and the pecans add wonderful flavor. They're great with hot cup of coffee or a tall glass of milk. --Jeanne Voss Anaheim Hills, California"
