DIRECTIONS
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, with an electric mixer on low speed, cream the butter and brown sugar together until well blended. Mix in the eggs and vanilla extract. Gradually add the flour mixture and combine well. Mix in the sliced pecans.
- Divide the dough in half and shape each into a log 1-1/2 inches in diameter, on a sheet of waxed paper or plastic wrap. Roll and cover in the paper, twisting the ends closed. Chill the dough for several hours or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Cut the chilled dough into 1/4-inch-thick slices and place 1 inch apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake in the center of the oven for about 8 minutes, or until the cookies are firm but not browned. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container. Well-wrapped cookies may be frozen.
