David's Pecan Meltaways at Costco Again 2024!

PA Mom-mom — Mon, 16 Sep 2024 21:38:31 GMT

I think we bring this up every year, but it bears a new entry. A 2-pound tin for $11.99. I got 2 tins for my SIL's grandmother for Christmas. The freshness date is June of 2025.

Costco usually has these, before the holidays, in their sales flyer and the price drops even more.

@PA Mom-mom This is my favorite cookie. I found the 12 oz. boxes at Marshall's...$6.99. I purchased 4 boxes for the holidays. Just went back today to get more and they are all gone. I'm not near a Costco...but that was a great price for the tins.

@elated Yes, that's where I got this picture. But at the stores they are 11.99 per 2-pound tin. At least here in SE PA.

I live in KY. I think the price is higher because of shipping and handling.

Yummy! If you haven't already seen them there, they're also at Costco online (free shipping). I have been buying them regularly for my 90+ year old FIL, who just loves them so, so much, though he calls them "pecan doughnuts".

The funny thing is that I can go to the club and buy them and drive to his house and hand them to him, but he loves to receive mail and packages, and then he gets to talk to the UPS/Fedex/USPS drivers and really enjoys that. Oh the things we do for loved ones LOL.

Online they are more expensive at two, 2 lb tins for $39.99, but that includes the "free" shipping and handling. Well, maybe not so free compared to your good deal at $11.99 each ($23.98 for two), but bill to/ship to is always so convenient. Looking at my orders, they were $6 off around the holidays last year, so $33.99 for two then (also "free" shipping).

I sent some to my brother in Cali for their Thanksgiving dinner and they sent me a selfie where everyone at their table had big exaggerated white powdered sugar rings around their mouths with a big "thank you" sign

edited to add: uh oh looks like I took too long typing before posting and others already advised about the online listing. Oops!

I buy smaller boxes at Home Goods and Marshal's. $3.99 for small, $6.99 for large. Bought some last week.

I've never heard of these. Can you (or someone) please give a description? Are they a cookie or candy? Chewy or crunchy? Is there caramel in the center? Thank you.

Oh good, they're back! Will have to see if in my local Costco store.

What a deal. When I think of the price differential makes my head spin lol.

@ScrapHappy

I think they're like an Italian wedding cake cookie. Not fluffy but not too dense, covered in powdered sugar. Not chewy or crunchy, just a good bite.

No caramel, all cookie. So delicious. Habit forming.

These delectable butter pecan meltaways are the perfect snack or dessert for the whole family. The treats are made with pure creamy butter and large pecan chunks and have just the right amount of powdered sugar to satisfy your sweet tooth.

They are absolutely delicious! If anyone has the chance to get them, buy them.

@ScrapHappy Others have answered your question, but I'll just add that my mother used to make these every Christmas. She called them Russian tea cookies. I've also heard them called Mexican wedding cookies. Mom made her's with hickory nuts, because they were in our yard and free.

@ScrapHappy, I would describe them as a two bite size butter shortbread cookie with finely chopped pecans then rolled and dusted in confectionery sugar.

I didn't notice these last time I was at Costco - they are delicious. Will look for them on my next trip.

Thanks for posting! riley1
