Ingredients
-
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cardamom
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Preparation
-
Beat butter at medium speed with an electric mixer, gradually adding sugar and beating well. Add egg and vanilla and beat well. Combine flour, soda, salt and spices; add to butter mixture, beating well. Stir in pecans.
Shape dough into two 12-inch rolls. Wrap in wax paper and chill at least two hours.
Unwrap rolls and cut into 1/4-inch slices and place on ungreased (or Silpat-lined) baking sheets.
Bake at 350\u00b0F for 10 to 12 minutes. Cool slightly on baking sheets, then remove to wire racks to cool completely.
Note: Dough can be frozen for several months. Slice dough while frozen and bake as directed.
