Pour remaining browned butter into a large mixing bowl. Beat browned butter with brown sugar until the butter is no longer hot. Mix in eggs 2 teaspoons vanilla baking soda baking powder and salt. Beat thoroughly. Mix in flour and chopped pecans. Drop tablespoons of dough onto ungreased baking sheets.

Step 4

Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven or until light brown around the edges. Cool.

Step 5

In a medium bowl mix the reserved 1/2 cup browned butter with 2 teaspoons vanilla confectioners' sugar and hot water. Beat until smooth and use to frost cooled cookies.
