Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a medium size mixing bowl, use a whisk to sift together flour and salt.
Use an electric mixer to cream together butter, vanilla and almond extracts. Add 3/4 cup powdered sugar. Beat until fully combined.
Lower speed of mixer and gradually add sifted dry ingredients. Beat until evenly mixed and dough-like. Add pecans, mixing through by hand.
Roll into 1 inch balls. Place on prepared cookie sheets. Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or just until the bottoms are lightly golden.
Spread remaining powdered sugar on a plate or shallow dish. Roll warm cookies in powdered sugar. Once all are coated, repeat. Use additional powdered sugar as needed to fully coat. Cool completely on a cooling rack.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
