Bourbon Pecan Shortbread Cookies

Alas, a sophisticated twist on a simple childhood favorite! Our Natural Bourbon Pecan Flavor pairs perfectly with Jogue’s premium Madagascar vanilla extract in this sweet & buttery shortbread cookie recipe.

How to Make Bourbon Pecan Shortbread Cookies:

Step 1: Prepare a cookie sheet by lightly greasing it with non-stick spray and set aside.

Step 2: Cream the sugar and butter in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolk, salt, Jogue Natural Bourbon Pecan Extract, and Jogue Madagascar Vanilla Extract. Beat the mixture again until all of the ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 3: Add the flour and toasted chopped pecans to the butter mixture. Mix gently until the dry ingredients are just incorporated.

Step 4: On a floured surface, roll the dough into a 1 ½ inch diameter log. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Step 5: Preheat the oven to 325F. Slice the chilled cookie dough into ¼ inch thick slices. Arrange the slices of cookie dough on the prepared cookie sheet. Top each one with a pecan half and brush the top with the beaten egg white.

Step 6: Bake for 14-16 minutes, let cool, and drizzle each shortbread cookie with melted chocolate. Enjoy!
