Chocolate Chip Balls

by Sally Bernstein


Makes 4 dozen

6 oz. or ¾ cup butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
2 cups flour
½ tsp. salt
1 cup pecans, chopped
6 oz. or ¾ cups mini chocolate chips

½ cup granulated sugar (for rolling)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cream butter and sugar in a stand mixer.   Add the remaining ingredients, one at a time.

Shape the ingredients into small balls in the palm of your hands and bake on a
cookie sheet for about 12-15 minutes until the cookies are slightly brown on the bottom and white on top.

Remove from the oven and immediately roll warm cookies in sugar, using tongs. 
Place on a rack to cool.

Store in an airtight container.
