For an even more intense pecan flavor, toast the chopped pecans in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes before adding them to the dough. Use high-quality butter for the best flavor and texture. These butter balls can be made ahead of time and stored in the freezer for up to 2 months. Thaw them completely before dusting with confectioners' sugar.
