In a large mixing bowl, pour in the powdered sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, salt and butter. Work the dough and then add the egg. 

Then add the almond powder and cornflour. Mix well.

Finally add the flour. Knead by hand.

Stir in white chocolate and pecans. Mix again.

As soon as the cookies come out of the oven, add a few whole pecans to the top and a few pieces of white chocolate before the cookies harden.

Then let the cookies cool on a wire rack before eating them.
