Instructions: 1. COMBINE flour and sugar in a medium mixing bowl. Cut in butter till mixture resembles fine crumbs and starts to cling. Stir in pecans and liqueur or milk. Work with hands, if necessary, to form into a ball.

2. PRESS I tablespoon of the dough into each madeleine pan, pressing down to make an indentation in the shell. Bake in a 325 degree oven for 18 to 20 minutes or till edges just start to brown. Remove from pans. Cool on wire racks.

NOTES : If the dough seems a bit dry, rely on the warmth of your hands to help form a ball; dont add more liquid.
