The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

I saw a recipe for Pecan Sandies in the Whitman County Gazette under My Favorite Recipes. Different people submit recipes. My first thought when I saw the name was of the packaged Pecan Sandies that were always a favorite, so I figured I couldn't go wrong. I thought everyone knew what Pecan Sandies were, but I found one person (in my household) that hadn't heard of them.

These are a winner, trust me. I thought maybe they would be a lot like shortbread – dense – but with the cream of tartar, they are a light and melt-in-your mouth kind of cookie. I bet you can't eat just two!
