Came across this delicious cookie recipe that I just had to share. Very easy to throw together and everybody gobbles them up!!! Hope you enjoy them as much as my family does!
$100 Pecan Cookies
1 cup shortening (butter-flavored Crisco is best)
1 cup butter
2 1/2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
3 cups all-purpose flour
3 cups cornflakes
2 cups chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. With an electric mixer in a large mixing bowl, cream shortening and butter, then add confectioners' sugar. Mix in vanilla and beat in flour gradually. At this point, the dough may not hold together. That's OK.
By hand with a wooden spoon, stir in cornflakes and pecans. (The dough will be very stiff, so this won't be easy.) Roll large teaspoonfuls of dough into balls, mashing the dough together but being careful to not crush the cornflakes any more than necessary.
Place on ungreased cookie sheets 1 inch apart and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until slightly brown. Remove from oven and transfer to cooling racks. If you bake them too long they will be really hard to bite into! Also you can add caramel bits or chocolate chips but they are delicious just like this!!!
