For a more intense nutty flavor, toast the pecans lightly before chopping. Ensure the butter is softened, but not melted, for the best texture. These cookies are quite delicate, so handle them with care, especially when coating them with powdered sugar. Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
