Recipe - Pecan Balls

1 cup Finely chopped pecans
2 tablespoon Sugar
1/8 teaspoon Salt
1 cup Flour
One half cup Real butter; softened, not
melted
1 teaspoon Vanilla

Mix everything together, and knead to make a large ball. Roll pieces of the
dough between your hands to make small balls. Place about aninch totwo
inches apart on a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for about 15 to 20
minutes. Remove from oven, and while hot coat with about 1cup of powdered
sugar. Set aside, allowto cool. Coat in powdered sugar again. Make sure to
store these in an airtight container ... moisture causes them to mush
..Makes about 20 balls.

NOTES: The trick to making these wonderful, Is to chopthe pecans VERYsmall.
Iusually buy the cookie pecan pieces at the store, andthen chopthemeven
more in a food processor.
