Pecan Walnut Sprinkle Cookies

Here is a really yummy recipe that I kind of made up myself. These cookies are REALLY good!
ENJOY!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ingredients:
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole walnuts (You can chop them up if you like, but if you leave them whole it makes the cookie SO much yummier!)
  • 1/2 cup whole pecans
  • Colorful Sprinkles

Directions:
  • Mix together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, Cream together butter, sugars, and vanilla, until smooth.
  • Add in eggs one at a time beating lightly after each addition.
  • Gradually add in flour mixture.
  • Beat well until light and fluffy.
  • Stir in Walnuts and Pecans,

Bake at 350* for 10 minutes or until lightly brown. (after five minutes of this time.. pinch on sprinkles onto the cookies.)

NOTE:

I usually preheat the oven to 350* and bake the first batch at this heat, then when the first batch is done, I turn my oven down to 325* and bake the rest at this heat. The cookies will be a little bit more chewy, but I like them this way. If you like browner cookies, then just leave them at 350*.
