Steps:
- Add the softened butter and vanilla to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium speed until the butter is smooth and creamy.
- With the mixer on low, slowly add the flour, powdered sugar, and salt. If the dough is too dry (if it doesn't hold together when you squeeze it), add 1 tablespoon of milk at a time until the dough resembles a dry cookie dough. It shouldn't be sticky, but just wet enough to hold together if you shape it into a ball.
- Next, add the butterscotch chips and pecans and fold them into the cookie dough. Shape the dough into a disc and wrap it in plastic wrap. Place it in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes up to 1 hour.
- While the dough chills, preheat your oven to 350F and line your baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Once the dough has chilled, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and roll it out to ¼" thick. Cut out your desired shape (I used a 2.5" round cookie cutter) and transfer them to the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 14-18 minutes or until the cookies are just starting to turn golden brown around the edges. Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool fully on the baking sheet. Then transfer any leftover cookies to an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to five days.

- In the bowl of a stand mixer, add butter and brown sugar. Using paddle attachment on medium-high speed, mix until fluffy and light, several minutes. Scrape down sides as needed. Add only 1 1/2 cups of the flour and mix on medium-low speed until combined, scraping down sides as needed.
- On a large board, sprinkle 1/3 cup flour to keep dough from sticking to the board. Use rubber spatula to transfer dough to the board. Knead dough by hand for 2 minutes, adding only as much of the remaining flour as needed to make a soft pliable dough. The dough should end up soft and workable, similar to play-dough. If it’s too sticky, add in one tablespoon of flour at a time just until dough is the right consistency. Do not add so much flour that dough becomes dry (note: you may not end up using all the flour.)
- Work in pecans. Divide dough in half and gently roll into logs that are 1 1/2″ diameter. Tip: moisten palms with a bit of water or oil to prevent dough from sticking to palms. If your dough has become too warm, chill dough a few minutes to firm up just enough to allow you to roll it.
- Wrap logs airtight and chill 30 minutes or until firm enough to slice easily. Preheat oven to 325F with rack on lower middle position. Line large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.

- Chop pecans and place on a baking sheet. Then bake at 350F for about 6 minutes or until fragrant. Move them around after 3 minutes to ensure an even toasting. Set aside to cool.
- Cut the cool butte into small pieces and transfer to your stand mixer then add the salt, powdered and granulated sugar. Mix on medium speed until creamed into a paste, scraping the bowl down as needed.
- Mix in the vanilla then add the flour and beat on low until almost combined then add the nuts and mix on low until incorporated. Use your spatula to scrape the bowl down and finish mixing any stray bits of flour and butter. If your dough looks very crumby you can drizzle in a tablespoon of water at this point to help it come together.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a log. Depending on the cookie size you want you can roll two narrow logs or one larger log. Wrap in parchment paper or plastic and chip for at least an hour.

- Before starting, this is a dense dough and if it is crumbly, DON'T be tempted to add more liquid or butter. Use your hands to shape it; mold it into a log and chill. It WILL turn out.
- Cream butter and sugar together for 3 minutes on medium speed of your mixer; reduce speed; gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Increase the speed to medium; add water and vanilla; beat well. Reduce speed to low; gradually add flour. Turn off mixer; remove from the stand. Fold in the pecans.
- Turn the dough out onto plastic wrap. The dough may be crumbly, but don't worry. Shape the dough with your hands; roll into a log; chill for at least 1 hour.
