These praline cookies are my go to treat when I want something special but don't have much time. They come together in just forty five minutes from start to finish, making them perfect for unexpected guests or last minute cravings.

Plus, pecans are packed with heart healthy monounsaturated fats that make indulging in these cookies feel a little bit less guilty. They're simple enough for a beginner baker but impressive enough to share with anyone.
