Super Delish Pecan Pie Cookies

I am LOVIN’ holiday baking this year! This one is one of my new favorites: Pecan Pie Cookies. Which is ironic. because I thought I didn’t like pecan pie. Turns out, I do! Thanks to these yummy cookies.

Eating one of these cookies is like indulging a mini pecan pie made for one. Which the hubs definitely gives a two thumbs up! 

And I have to say… these were really easy to make. I used Pillsbury refrigerated pie crust, but can use homemade crust if you prefer. When you are cooking the ingredients for the filling, be sure to stir constantly on low heat. One other note is to make sure you line your baking pans with parchment paper. Otherwise you might have a sticky situation on your hands!
