Preparation -
Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and honey together in a large mixing bowl. Add the vanilla, flour, and chopped pecans. Sir with a spoon to mix well. Shape the dough into 1" round balls. Place the balls about 1" apart on a cookie sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 350º for 12 to 14 minutes or until very lightly browned. Remove from the oven and cool slightly on wire racks. Roll the partially cooled cookies in Confectioners' sugar until coated. For colorful Christmas cookies, roll in red and green granulated sugar after rolling in Confectioners' sugar.
