Recipe View Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This prevents them from breaking.

For an even richer flavor, brown the butter before creaming it with the sugars. Allow the browned butter to cool slightly before using.
To toast the pecans, spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant. Alternatively, toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until lightly browned.
These cookies are best enjoyed within 2-3 days of baking. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature.

    I substituted walnuts for pecans, and they were still amazing. This recipe is very forgiving.
