Butter Pecan Oatmeal Cookies



This is my very first ever blog entry. It's more of a test than anything, but I figured I might as well share a tasty recipe while I'm at it. Enjoy!



Butter Pecan Oatmeal Cookies



Ingredients
3/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chopped pecans, 1/2 cup whole pecans to go on top of cookies
2 cups chopped toffee bits



Directions
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line cookie sheets with baking paper.
In a bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar. Stir in the egg and vanilla until smooth. Add flour, salt and baking soda, stir into the creamed mixture. Then stir in oats. Finally, stir in the chopped toffee pieces and chopped pecans.
With a spoon, create small round balls and drop onto the prepared cookie sheets, and flatten slightly. Press a whole pecan in to the top of each cookie. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven until golden brown.
