These Gluten-Free Butter Pecan Cookies are not only delicious, they’re also very easy to throw together.

Notes
If you’re not following a gluten free diet stir together 2 ½ cups flour, 2 tsp baking powder and ¼ tsp salt in place of the gluten free Bisquick. The recipe makes 4 dozen cookies but you double or halve the recipe depending on whether you want more or less than that amount.
