  8. Roll the cookie dough into large balls (about 1/4 cup each) and place them on the prepared baking sheets.
  9. Use your thumb to make an indentation in the center of each cookie.
  10. Fill the indentation with a spoonful of the pecan pie filling.
  11. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  12. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

For extra flavor, toast the pecans before chopping them. You can also add a pinch of cinnamon to the cookie dough or the pecan pie filling.
