Pecan Balls (Christmas Cookies)

The best way to get finely ground pecans is to put the sugar in the processor with the pecans. These cookies remind me of the greek cookies i make.. A little tip.... Sift confectioner sugar over them while warm. Then when cool sift more. My guess would be to bake 10 -12 min. Depending on how big you roll them.

Ingredients:

• ½ lb. butter
• 4 Tbsp. sugar
• 2 C ground pecans
• 2 C flour
• 1 tsp. vanilla
