I found this recipe for Pecan Cinnamon Shortbread in the Summer 2007 Cooking for 2 magazine. My mom gave me a subscription and every issue has been great so far!

Shortbread is one of my favorite baked goods. I’ve already made this pecan cinnamon shortbread twice already. YUM!

Pecan Cinnamon Shortbread

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup butter, softened, divided
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped pecans
  • 2 tbsp confectioners’ sugar
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp baking powder

Directions

  1. In a small saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add pecans; cook and stir for 1 minute or until lightly toasted. Set aside.
  2. In a small mixing bowl, cream confectioners’ sugar and remaining butter.
  3. Combine the flour, cinnamon, salt and baking powder; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well (dough will be crumbly).
  4. Stir in pecans.
  5. Pat into a 5-inch circle on an ungreased baking sheet. Using a fork, prick score lines to form four wedges.
  6. Bake at 350 degrees for 14-16 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
  7. Immediately cut along score lines.
  8. Cool for 2 minutes before carefully removing to a wire rack.

Enjoy!

    Cooking for 2 sounds like a magazine I should look into getting…I love to bake but there is always too much!

    I love it! I’m crazy for shortbread and the combination of pecan and cinnamon is irresistible for me. I baked it the other day and boy, it was so hard for me not to eat the whole thing! My husband likes it too because it is not too sweet. Thanks for posting the recipe.
