Cream the butter and powdered sugar in a mixing bowl until fluffy.

Add the egg yolks and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.

Incorporate the toasted flour, cinnamon, and salt until a dough forms.

Fold in the chopped pecans until evenly distributed.

Shape the dough into small balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Flatten each ball slightly with your palm.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned.

Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes.

Dust with additional powdered sugar before serving.
