Ingredients
1 cup butter softened
¾ cup brown sugar
1 large egg
1/3 cup Liquid Malt Extract or molasses
1/3 cup ground Millican Pecans
1 ¼ teaspoons baking soda
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cloves
2 teaspoons nutmeg
½ teaspoon salt
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line two baking sheets with silpats.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the softened butter with the sugar and brown sugar until lightened in color, a couple minutes.
- Turn the mixer turned off, scrape the malt extract or molasses into the bowl and start off on low speed and increase to high, scraping down the sides as necessary. Blend in the egg.
- Combine the dry ingredients in a medium bowl: ground pecans, flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and salt. Whisk to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients into the wet and blend slowly until dough comes together.
- Use a 1 1/2 TBS cookie scoop to scoop 12 dough rounds onto each prepared sheet; bake 10-12 minutes per tray - just until edges are starting to brown.
- Cool on the sheet for about 2-3 minutes before moving from the tray to the cooling rack to complete cooling.
- Repeat with remaining dough.
