I went in search for a recipe to resemble great american cookie company's "chewy pecan cookie" that is so irrisistable, and came upon this one.  It was one of those copy cat recipes that someone had posted, and after trying them I was pleasantly surprised.  They aren't exactly the same as I remember, but are pretty close.

Ingredients:
1/2 c. shortening
1 1/3 c. light brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 c. self rising flour
1 c. crushed cornflakes
1 1/2 c. chopped pecans

Directions:
Cream together shortening, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Add dry ingredients and mix well. Roll into 2" balls and bake 9-11 minutes at 350 degrees.
