Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1/2 cup of powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, chopped nuts, and salt.
  5. Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, blending until a dough forms.
  6. Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the bottoms are lightly golden. They should remain pale on top.
  8. Allow the cookies to cool for a few minutes, then roll them in powdered sugar while still warm.
  9. Let the cookies cool completely before rolling them in powdered sugar again for a snowy finish.

Chef’s Tips

  • For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or almond extract to the dough.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain their freshness for up to a week.
  • Experiment with different nuts or even chocolate chips for varied textures and flavors.
