Yield about 28 to 32

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup (2 sticks) butter
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2/3 cup grated semisweet chocolate
1 cup pine nuts, toasted and lightly chopped
2 1/4 cups cake flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
Powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • With an electric mixer, in a medium size bowl, cream the butter and sugar. Stir in the vanilla, grated chocolate, and pine nuts. Mix in the flour and salt. Chill the dough.
  • When ready to bake, roll out the dough, on a floured surface, to a 1/4 inch thickness. Cut out the cookies with a 2inch round cookie cutter. Gather the scraps together and reroll the dough to cut out more cookies. Place slightly apart on a nonstick baking sheet.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, or until the cookies are dry and firm. When cool, dust the cookies with the powdered sugar.
