Skor Bits Pecan Cookies

Pre-freezing the Skor bits will prevent them from disappearing while the cookies bake. Recipe is easily doubled. Invest in a small spring loaded ice cream scoop for perfectly shaped cookies. Dough can be frozen in dollops and baked as needed. They also freeze well baked. Avoid using dark non stick cookie sheets. The shiny insulated kind work the best.
