- Preheat oven to 325° F. and grease a 15 1/2- by 10
1/2-inch jelly-roll pan.
- In a bowl with an electric mixer beat butter and sugar
until light and fluffy and beat in yolk. Add cinnamon and
flour and beat until combined well. Spread dough evenly
in pan. In a small bowl lightly beat white and brush dough
with enough white to coat completely. Sprinkle pecans over
top and gently press them into dough. Bake dough in middle
of oven 25 minutes, or until golden brown. While confection
is still warm, cut into bars, each about 2 1/2 by 1 1/2
inches, and cool completely in pan on rack.
Makes about 42 cookies.
