Pecan Cocoons Recipes
CAJUN PECAN COCOONS
My husband is from South Louisiana and doesn't have any family here. To show my appreciation for all he does for me, I try to learn all his favorite things and this is one of them. His best friends mom made them for our wedding and she passed the recipe on to me.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 325F.
- 2. Mix all ingredients in bowl and chill for two hours.
- 3. Shape into small balls, by rolling between palms and bake on an ungreased baking sheet for 20 minutes. They will not brown.
- 4. In another bowl add about a cup of confectioners sugar. When slightly cooled, roll each cookie in sugar until well coated.
PECAN FINGER COOKIES
A heritage recipe from my Mama's collection, these pecan shortbread finger cookies are known by many names. Mama's recipe is just perfect and it is the one Christmas cookie above all others in my holiday baking!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cream the butter, add the sugar and blend together. Add remaining ingredients, mixing well.
- Chill dough for about 10 minutes to make it easier to handle.
- Shape into small finger shaped logs and bake at 350 degrees F for 10 to 15 minutes or until lightly browned.
- May also bend and shape dough into a crescent shape for Crescent Cookies or Cocoons, or roll into a ball for Snowball Cookies.
- Let cool slightly so that you can handle them but while still warm, roll in the extra powdered sugar to coat; re-roll in the powdered sugar several times if desired. I usually roll mine two or three times.
- Set aside to cool completely before storing.
COCOONS
A Christmas tradition handed down from my great grandmother. Some people call these sand tarts or wedding cookies, we called them cocoons because of their shape. Whatever you decide to call them, they are a wonderful, melt in your mouth, not too sweet perfect little two bite cookie.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 275.
- Cream the butter and sugar until smooth.
- Add vanilla, combine.
- Add the flour, combine.
- Mix in the pecans.
- Scoop out 1 tablespoon of dough, I use a cookie/ice cream scoop, shape into into a cocoon- about 2" by 1/2".
- Place the cookies on cookies sheet, you can put them fairly close together as they do not rise or spread very much.I always use parchment paper on my cookies sheets.
- Bake about 45 minutes, you don't really want them to be brown.
- While the cookies are baking, prepare the powdered sugar. Place some in a large bowl or container, then as you take the cookies out of the oven, layer them with powdered sugar in the bowl I just leave them in the powdered sugar until they cool.
- Dig them out and tap the sugar off- this is messy but fun- I like a thick layer of sugar on mine and sifting the sugar over the cookies doesn't get them like I want.
- The ones you don't eat right away keep well in an airtight container.
