These tender pecan shortbread cookies are also flavored with fresh rosemary and drizzled with honey-ginger icing. Sprinkle a little extra fresh grated ginger on top for one delicious fall cookie.
This content was created using complimentary products from Melissa’s Produce, Millican Pecans, Dixie Crystals, and Taylor & Colledge. I was not otherwise compensated and all thoughts/opinions are my own.
Normally I only think to make shortbread for the winter holidays, but after making these that needs to change.
Not only are there pecans and rosemary in the dough itself, they are also topped with a honey-ginger icing and a little extra fresh grated ginger in case you had any doubts about the flavor.
You could easily press a whole pecan on top before baking these but I didn’t want a big crunchy pecan stealing the show from this uniquely tender cookie.
What do they taste like? The base reminds is reminiscent of pecan sandies, but tender instead of crunchy. But then add the savory warmth of the herbal rosemary flavor. Then mellow out that rosemary with the sweetness of honey in the icing, with a little zing from the fresh ginger.
These cookies are basically a fall flavor party for your taste buds.
This recipe was made using Melissa’s Produce fresh rosemary and ginger and Millican Pecans, and Dixie Crystals sugar. They really shine together in this recipe!
