For an even richer flavor, use browned butter instead of softened butter. Toasting the pecans enhances their nutty flavor. Spread them on a baking sheet and toast in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant. For a non-alcoholic version, substitute the bourbon with 3 tablespoons of vanilla extract or a bourbon-flavored extract. Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

Jun 27, 2025So easy to make and everyone loved them. I used a bourbon extract since I didn't have any bourbon on hand, and they were still delicious!
