PECAN SHORTBREAD
Made in 1 bowl without eggs or leavening, this pecan shortbread is soft yet dense with crisp crumbly edges. We'll use the simple slice and bake method, which helps guarantee thick cookies. No rolling pin required!

Steps:
- In a large bowl using a hand-held mixer or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together on medium-high speed until combined and creamy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the vanilla extract on high speed. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. Add the flour, cinnamon, and salt, then beat on low speed until combined. Beat in the chopped pecans. The cookie dough may look like it won't come together, but keep beating- I promise, it will! The cookie dough will be thick.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface and, with floured hands, divide or cut into two. Shape each half into an 8-inch log, about 2.5 inches in diameter. The measurements don't have to be exact. Tightly wrap the logs in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 3-4 hours and up to 5 days. Chilling is mandatory for this cookie dough. I prefer to chill mine for 4 hours or even overnight- the colder the dough, the thicker the cookies.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
- You can actually roll the logs before or after chilling them. Mix the coarse sugar and chopped pecans together on a large plate. One at a time, roll the log into the mixture. Press it down so the nuts and sugar stick to all sides.
- Slice each log into 12 equally thick cookies and place cookies on baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
- Bake the cookies for 12-14 minutes or until brown around the edges. Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Cookies will stay fresh covered at room temperature for 1 week.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix together the butter and sugar until they are just combined. Add the vanilla and almond extracts. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour and salt, then add them to the butter/sugar mixture. Add the pecans and mix on low speed until the dough starts to come together. Dump onto a surface dusted with flour and shape into a flat disk. Wrap in plastic and chill for 30 minutes.
- Roll the dough 1/2-inch thick and cut into 2 1/2-inch squares with a plain or fluted cutter (or cut into any shape you like). Place the cookies on an ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the edges begin to brown. Allow to cool to room temperature and serve.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, beat butter at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy. In a medium bowl, combine flour, confectioners' sugar, and cornstarch. Add flour mixture, cream, vanilla, and pecans to butter, beating until well combined. Cover dough with plastic wrap, and refrigerate 2 hours. Preheat oven to 350°. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to ¼ inch thick. Using a 2-inch square cutter, cut out dough, rerolling scraps twice. Place on prepared pans, spacing 1 inch apart. Bake until lightly browned, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool on pans 5 minutes. Remove from pans, and let cool completely on wire racks. (Set pans aside, and let cool.) Dip half of each cookie in melted chocolate, and return to prepared pans. Sprinkle with toffee bits. Let stand until chocolate is set, approximately 1 hour. Store in an airtight container up to 5 days.
