I can't remember where I found this recipe originally. I saw it somewhere, wrote it down, and kind of forgot about it. I ran across it, and decided to make it. Boy, is it easy and really great tasting.
Ingredients:
1 (7oz) container homestyle fluffy white frosting mix
1/2 cup boiling water

2 tsp vanilla
1 (16 oz) box powdered sugar

1. Place frosting, boiling water corn syrup, and vanilla in a mixing bowl. Beat at low speed until mixed. Then beat mixture until stiff peaks form (4-5 minutes).

3. Stir in chopped pecans.
4. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto wax paper lined cookie sheets. Top each with one pecan half .
5. Lelt stand until firm on the bottom (about 8 hours).
