The “Last Course” cookbook is now on sale at their restaurants website for $50! It goes for several hundred on Amazon, so quite a deal. YEah!

Just not my taste? I like my chocolate desserts cold.

I’m still wondering what’s wrong with warm, oozy chocolate desserts?

I make sandies for my grandmother whenever she remembers the cookies of her youth in Pakistan, naan kathai, an egg-less cookie with ghee and cardamom. This was the best recipe yet for pecan sandies, thank for posting it!

Yes. An equal weight of pecan meal should be fine. I would not skip the flour.

Quick question… I don’t have a food processor or coffee grinder at home, but I do have pecan meal. Can I substitute this for the fresh ground pecans? Also, if I substitute the pecan meal, would I still need to add the 1/4 cup of flour?

I made these last night. DELICIOUS and easy. Thanks for the inspiration! My recipe made about 90 1 inch squares and a few scraps that were gobbled up, too!

I just made these with almonds (that is all I had and I was desperate to try them!) They were amazing!

I bought pecan sandies at a small bakery in Roslyn, NY – they were so delicate and tasty, so when I got home I had to search for a recipe. I made these yesterday. The bakery cookies were yummy, but these are even better. I am forwarding the recipe link to all my friends.

Every fall my mother sends me a care package from Georgia of fresh pecans. Considering the dry,stale things on my island sell for $15.98/lb in the bulk section of my local island grocer, I embrace them and savor them like precious contraband. Though, I now know some of these yummy morsels will be making their way into your pecan sandies recipe. Thank you kindly.
