I am not fond of the word perfect. I don't use it, I don't even believe in it's existence. Is it possible to be a word-atheist, a 'watheist'? But it's ok that others do, we all have our things after all. This weekend I made a version of my Rustic Salted Pecan Cookies. They were deemed perfect by the people I live with, 'damn fine' even with the nuts by my favorite nut avoider, and excellent by two other testers. So I figured I should share my recipe. I had thought that I had shared an earlier version but hell if I can find it.
EB's Rustic Salted Pecan Cookies
sift together:
1 c whole wheat pastry flour
1 c unbleached all purpose flour
1 t baking soda
cream together:
3/4 c butter
1 c palm sugar
Add to the butter-sugar mixture:
2 eggs, room temperature
1 t vanilla
Stir in by hand sifted dry ingredients and
1 t sea salt [I used a vanilla infused sea salt with added to the yummy I think]
1 c crushed pecans
chill and bake rounded teaspoonfuls of dough for 9 minutes at 350 degrees,
remove and cool on rack.
If anyone tries them please let me know how they turn out for you.
In other news I think I may have killed my phone, it's sitting on the buffet drying out and it doesn't look good. *sob*
On the brighter side we got our tree today at the fabulous Mother Earth. The night air was brisk, there was a little snow drifting down, the women there were fabulous as well as my friends, the shop cat friendly and now my home smells like a forest in heaven. Add to this a great writing session with my partner, and a few more cards getting sent out and it was mostly a grand Monday.
Here's too a good rest of the week for us all!
