I needed to use up a bag of pecans leftover from holiday baking, so I tried out a new low-sugar pecan crescent cookie recipe (very close to this one; mine just used 5 tblspns. of powdered sugar, and I sprinkled the tops instead of rolling them in more powdered sugar after baking.) After the first batch of crescent-shaped cookies came out I wasn't happy with how thick they were, so I rolled the rest of the dough into balls and flattened them with a fork dipped in powdered sugar before baking.
They're like shortbread with nuts, and not too sweet. My guy liked them a lot. I still think they're too thick, but I might try rolling out the dough and doing cutouts next time.

This is the kind of cookie Greg loves with his coffee. I'm going to make them once I see what the doctor thinks of his blood work. He hasn't been doing well lately.
No nuts :(
