Ingredients
- 1 cup of butter, softened
- 1 cup of sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg
- 2 cups of mashed persimmon pulp
- 1/2 cup of chopped pecans
Instructions
Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, in a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, mixing until everything is just combined. Then stir in the persimmon pulp and pecans until everything is evenly blended.
Drop the cookie dough by teaspoonfuls onto a greased baking sheet. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are lightly golden. Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
