1 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
2 Land O Lakes® All-Natural Egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour

Pecan halves

Directions

Heat oven to 350°F. Combine butter, sugar, egg yolks and vanilla in large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until well mixed. Add flour and salt; beat at low speed, scraping bowl often, until well mixed.

Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Place 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Flatten balls to 1/4-inch thickness with bottom of glass dipped in sugar. Place pecan half in center of each cookie.

Bake 10-12 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool 1 minute on cookie sheets; remove to cooling rack.
