Ingredients

  • 2 cups unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 2 1/3 cups Dixie Crystals Light Brown Sugar
  • 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour*
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 6 eggs, separated
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 tablespoons instant coffee dissolved in 3 tablespoons hot water
  • 4 cups chopped pecans
    • *Spoon & Sweep method: Use a spoon to fill measuring cup with flour until required amount is obtained. Scooping measuring cup directly into flour bag will firmly pack flour resulting in too much flour required for recipe.

    2. In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
