1 cup walnuts, pounded or ground to paste (use blender)
2 sticks butter, softened
1/2 tsp. vanilla
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 1/2 cups sifted flour
1 cup confectioners sugar
Melted chocolate (optional)
Instructions
Mix walnuts, butter, vanilla, granulated sugar and flour together in a large bowl. Shape dough into small crescents. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake in 350 degree oven for about 15-17 mins. While first batch bakes, sift the confectioners sugar and have it read to dip the cookies in after they have cooled for 2 mins.
Do not dip cookies in confectioners sugar if you are melting chocolate (milk or bittersweet) and dribbling it over cookies when they are removed from the oven.
