1 c. sifted cake flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 c. butter
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 c. finely ground pecans

Sift cake flour and salt together. Set aside. Cream butter gradually; add granulated sugar and beat, creaming until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Blend in dry ingredients. Stir in pecans. Shape into 1-inch balls. Place on lightly greased cookie sheets 2-inches apart.

Bake in 250°F oven until firm and ivory colored for 40 to 45 minutes. Roll in powdered sugar. Let cool and roll in powdered sugar again.

Makes about 3 dozen cookies and they are delicious.
