(from the early 1950's)
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter (2 cubes)
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tsp. vanilla
- 2 cups flour
- 1 Tbsp. water
- 1 cup chopped nuts
- (optional)1 tsp. cinnamon, 1 tsp. allspice or cloves, etc.
Directions
Cream 1 cup butter and 1/4 cup powdered sugar.
Add 2 teaspoons vanilla, 2 cups flour, 1 Tablespoon water.
Mix well.
Add 1 cup chopped nuts. Optional add 1 teaspoon cinnamon, allspice or cloves etc.
Form into small balls, flatten slightly. Bake on ungreased cookie sheet.
300 degrees F for 20 minutes or until delicately browned.
While hot, roll in powdered sugar. I let them cool and roll again in the powdered sugar.
(Instead of rolling, I use a paper bag and shake them gently to coat them.)
