Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butter, sugar, and vanilla. Stir until blended, and then add the baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix well. Mix in finely ground pecans (measure after grinding). Pour in the eggs and stir. Then add the flour and mix until all the ingredients are thoroughly blended.

Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
