- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) of unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup walnuts, finely chopped
- 1 cup confectioners sugar
Directions:
1. First, chop or crush your walnuts. You could use a blender or a chopper but I did something else. I put the walnuts in plastic bags and then crushed them with a heavy,marble rolling pin.
2. Preheat the oven to 300 F. Line 2 two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
3. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, mix the butter,sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy (about 2 mins)
4. Add the flour and continue to mix (about 1 min)
5. Add walnuts. Mix with mixer.
6. Measure out generous/overflowing teaspoons of dough and roll them into balls with your hands. Put them on the baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
7. Bake for about 30 mins. To test them, take one out, cut it in half and see if its doughy in center. The cookies should be beginning to turn golden when you take them out.
8. Roll the cookies in confectioner's sugar while still hot. Place on a cooling rack and let 'em chill :P
Enjoy! nom nom nom...
