11 Pecan Christmas Cookie Recipes (Toasty & Buttery)

Classic Pecan Sandies

Classic Pecan Sandies are delightful, buttery cookies that have a delicate crumble and a rich nutty flavor. Perfect for the holiday season, these cookies are easy to make and are a wonderful treat for family gatherings or gifting to friends. The combination of chopped pecans and a hint of vanilla creates a delectable taste that pairs beautifully with a warm cup of tea or coffee.

Cooking Steps

1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C). This guarantees that your cookies will bake evenly.
2. Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, making it easier to remove the cookies once they are baked and cooled.
3. Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. This should take about 3 to 5 minutes.
4. Add Vanilla Extract: Once the butter and sugars are well combined, add the vanilla extract to the mixture and mix until fully incorporated.
5. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture into the creamed butter mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.
6. Incorporate Chopped Pecans: Gently fold in the chopped pecans using a spatula or wooden spoon. Confirm that the nuts are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
7. Shape the Cookies: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie, as they will spread while baking.
8. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Keep an eye on them, as baking times may vary based on the oven.
9. Cool the Cookies: Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. After that, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Serve or Store: Once the cookies are completely cooled, they are ready to be served. If you’re not eating them right away, store them in an airtight container to maintain freshness. Enjoy your Classic Pecan Sandies!

Brown Butter Pecan Cookies

Brown Butter Pecan Cookies are a scrumptious twist on a classic cookie recipe, featuring the rich, nutty flavor of brown butter paired with crunchy pecans. These cookies are slightly chewy with a delightful toasty aroma, making them an irresistible treat for the holiday season or any occasion. The process of browning the butter adds a depth of flavor that elevates these cookies to a new level of deliciousness.

Cooking Steps

1. Brown the Butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Continue to cook the butter, swirling the pan occasionally, until it turns a golden brown color and has a nutty aroma, usually about 5-7 minutes. Be careful not to burn it. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
2. Mix Sugars and Butter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Pour the cooled brown butter into the sugar mixture and whisk together until fully combined.
3. Add Egg and Vanilla: Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. This guarantees that the leavening agent is evenly distributed in the dough.
5. Mix Dry Ingredients into Wet Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, using a spatula or wooden spoon to gently fold everything together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Incorporate Chopped Pecans: Gently fold in the chopped pecans into the cookie dough, making sure they are evenly integrated.
7. Chill the Dough: For best results, cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This helps the flavors meld and makes the dough easier to handle.
8. Preheat the Oven: While the dough is chilling, preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
9. Shape the Cookies: Once the dough has chilled, use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
10. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked; this will provide a chewy texture.
11. Cool the Cookies: After baking, allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
12. Serve or Store: Once cooled, the Brown Butter Pecan Cookies are ready to be enjoyed! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.

5. Chill the Dough: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. This helps to firm up the dough for easier handling.
6. Preheat the Oven: While the dough is chilling, preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

9. Prepare the Pecan Filling: In a small bowl, combine the corn syrup, additional granulated sugar, water, and chopped pecans. Mix until well combined.
10. Fill Cookies: Spoon a small amount of the pecan mixture into the center of each cookie indentation, guaranteeing not to overfill.
