Pecan Honey Cookies

Step 1

Place the nuts into a food processor.

Step 2

Add the butter and drizzle the honey over the nuts.

Step 3

Add the cinnamon and sea salt.

Step 4

Pulse in the food processor for 1-2 minutes or until the nuts become small and uniform in size. (See the picture above for reference.)

Step 5

Roll the "dough" into small balls. It will be sticky and a bit finicky to work with but can be pressed together.

Step 6

Place on a lined cookie sheet and press into flat rounds.

Step 7

Sprinkle with extra cinnamon if desired.

Step 8

Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 12-15 minutes or until the edges begin to darken. (Once the edges begin to darken the middles will darken very quickly, so make sure you watch them.)

Step 9

The cookies will fall apart very easily until cooled. I like to very carefully transfer all of the cookies at one time on their parchment paper or liner to a cooling rack instead of picking each cookie up individually.
