Cinnamon Butter Pecan Cookies are our favorite cookies we’ve ever made!

This time of year, around the holidays, cookies are in abundance. You’ve got to have a couple of no-fail, crowd pleaser cookie recipes in your back pocket. This is sure to be one of the them!

Homemade cookies are much better than packaged ones from the store– even better than the ones from the bakery, I think. And cookies aren’t that difficult to make. So it’s totally worth it.

Cinnamon Butter Pecan Cookies

Butter Pecan

Most people know butter pecan as an ice cream flavor (one of my favorites), but here’s it kind of a play on words. These cookies are packed with toasted pecans, and rely on Chef Shamy Cinnamon Honey Butter for a lot of flavor.

Between the pecans and the Cinnamon Honey Butter, there’s so much flavor going on here that other cookies will pale in comparison. It’s got a great kick of cinnamon from the butter, and the crunchy pecans cut through to make sure the cookies aren’t too sweet.

Baking

I always like to throw out a reminder about measuring Honey Butter correctly. Because the butter is whipped, it can be tricky to measure. Click here for the best way to do it.

Baking during the holidays is always fun, and always rewarding. Oh, what fun it is to provide some holiday cheer through baked goods!

Enjoy!
