Cream butter and sugar. Add flour, cinnamon, and egg yolk. Mix by hand. Pat dough into ungreased cookie sheet, about 1/4 inch thick. Press pecans into dough. Beat egg white and spread over dough. Bake at 300 degrees F for 1 hour. Cut into strips while warm.

I tried these this morning and it just DIDN'T work out well at all. They were burnt after 20 minutes of being in the oven.
I took them out a half hour later and the bottoms were burnt and I did use a non stick cookie sheet.What could have went so wrong?
an hour seems to be an awful long time to bake these
This sounds like Jan Hagel, a Dutch cookie, that is made the same way except on spreads the slightly beaten egg white on the dough and then presses sliced almonds into it before baking.
