Рецепт Pecan Sandies with Toffee
Pecan Sandies with Toffee- melt in your mouth cookies loaded with crunchy pecans and toffee bits. So much tastier than the store bought version!
Do you like your cookies crispy or soft and chewy? I am a soft and chewy cookie kinda girl. Aside from shortbread, there are not many crunchy cookies that I love. But I am adding these Toffee Pecan Sandies to the list of crisp cookies that I could eat way too many of.
They have a crumbly texture, which I’m guessing is why they are referred to as “sandies”. And they do just melt away in your mouth. I have actually made the recipe before, but this time I added toffee bits. And oh my gosh was that a great addition! I love the depth of flavor they add, and the extra crunch. If all you have ever tried are store bought Pecan Sandies, you should really give this recipe a try!
This recipe does make a bucketload of cookies, so you’ll have plenty to share with friends. Or if you want to keep them all for yourself, they do freeze well.
