Sandies

*Makes 5 dozen cookies

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.  Cream together the butter and powdered sugar.  Add vanilla and the water. Mix well.  Add the flour and mix well then stir in the chopped pecans. 

Form the dough into small balls (about 1 - 1 1/2" in diameter) and bake on an ungreased cookie sheet for 20 minutes, or until delicately browned.  After removing from the oven, and while they are still hot, roll in powdered sugar.
