Notes:
While these cookies are still hot, I sometimes push a piece of pecan in the center. One time I did not roll the balls of dough in the sugar; they still melted in your mouth. For Valentines Day I sprinkled some with red sugar.

Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 1 cups - butter softened
- 1 cups - vegetable oil
- 1 cups - white sugar
- 1 cups - confectioners' sugar
- 2 - eggs
- 1 teaspoons - vanilla extract
- 4 cups - all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoons - baking soda
- 1 teaspoons - cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoons - salt
- 2 cups - chopped pecans
- 1/2 cups - white sugar for decoration
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
In large bowl, cream together butter, oil, 1 cup sugar and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla.
In separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt. Stir into creamed mixture. Mix in the pecans.
Roll dough into 1-inch balls and roll each ball in sugar. (To limit sugar I will just dip the tops in sugar). Place cookies 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are golden. Cool on wire racks.
