Recipe Summary Gram Opal's Sugar Cookies

My grandma, Opal June Carlson (Gram C), made these cookies whenever my dad and I came to her cottage on Lake Okoboji for a visit. Although at the time I picked off the pecan halves that my 7-year-old self didn't yet appreciate, these simply delicious cookies were amazing and will live forever in my heart along with my Gram C!

Ingredients | How Many Grams In An Eighth

2 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

⅛ teaspoon salt

1 cup butter

1 cup white sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ teaspoon lemon extract

2 cups confectioners' sugar

¼ cup butter, melted

1 tablespoon hot water, or as needed

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

24 whole pecans

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets.

Sift flour, baking soda, and 1/8 teaspoon salt together in a bowl.

Beat 1 cup butter, white sugar, and egg in a bowl with an electric mixer until creamy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add flour mixture, vanilla extract, and lemon extract to butter mixture; stir until dough is well blended. Roll cookie dough into walnut-size balls and place 2 inches apart onto prepared cookie sheets. Press each ball down with the bottom of a glass to flatten slightly.

Bake in the preheated oven until baked through, 6 to 7 minutes. Cool.

Stir confectioners' sugar, 1/4 cup melted butter, hot water, and vanilla together in a bowl until sugar is completely dissolved and icing is smooth. Spread icing on cooled cookies and top each cookie with a pecan.
