Mary's pecan puffs
60 Servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 3 | Egg whites | |
| 1 | cup | Confectioner's sugar; sifted |
| 1 | teaspoon | Vanilla extract |
| 2 | cups | Pecan halves |
| 1 | cup | Sugar |
Directions
Beat egg whites until stiff. Add confectioner's sugar gradually. Gradually add granulated sugar. Fold in vanilla and pecan halves. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto a greased cookie sheet. Place them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in a very slow oven (300 degrees) for about 12-15 minutes or until firm and delicately browned at the edges. Cool completely. Store in an air tight container, or the humid salt air will soften them.
