These are my husband's favorites... so rich and buttery they melt in your mouth!
1 cup softened butter or margarine
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cup finely chopped walnuts
In a large bowl combine ingredients on low speed of mixer about 1 minute. Blend well. Gradually add flour at low speed until just combined; stir in nuts.
Roll dough into 1 inch balls; place about 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 F for 8-10 minutes until firm to the touch; note from experience:
Do not overbake- they will crumble when you try to pick them up if they're cooked even a minute too long. These cookies don't brown when done!
While warm, roll in powdered sugar. Cool; re-roll in powdered sugar before serving.
***I tripled this recipe and made 10 dozen cookies***
