Every winter my grandparents head down south to Florida to get away from the cold, ice and snow. They spend the majority of the time camping (yes camping! Even though they’re both over eighty years old!) in Florida, but they alway stop in Georgia and bring me back Georgia pecans to bake with. Every year I look for a way to use my pecans that highlights, not hides them. Enter; Ina Garten. I love Ina Garten. I love watching her shows on the Food Network and ask for one of her cookbooks for every Christmas and birthday. I love that all of her recipes and ideas about entertaining are simple, elegant and timeless, just like her pecan shortbread cookies. For the past several years, I have used my precious Georgia Pecans to make them and each time they have been absolutely amazing. The recipe is simple, and the cookies come out buttery, crispy and not too sweet. These cookies are perfectly simple and delicious! You can easily find the recipe online just like I did- give them a try! You (and whoever you choose to share them with) won’t be sorry!
