Grandma's Crescents

These cookies are a Christmas staple in our family, and my grandmother's favorite cookie.  I really think she made these for herself because these cookies always seemed to be hidden the best. I say hidden because my grandma loved to make all these Christmas cookies and then immediately package them up in Tupperware and poke them in the closet and then get mad at us for wanting to eat them. :) Needless to say we always had leftover cookies after Christmas. 

Ingredients:
1 cup butter
1/2 cup powdered sugar, plus more for coating cookies after baking
1 tsp vanilla
1 3/4 cup flour
1 cup chopped pecans

Cream butter and sugar together then add in vanilla and flour

Fold in nuts

roll out and shape in to crescents
Bake at 

Let cool for a little bit then roll in powdered sugar

Let cookies cool on rack 
Enjoy!
