3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 1/2 cups white sugar or 1 1/2 cups sugar substitute, such as splenda
2 egg whites
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 1/3 cups flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 tablespoon skim milk

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375°F
In a small bowl combine milk and 1 tsp cinnamon, set aside.
Cream butter with the sugar, the egg whites and the lemon juice until fluffy.
Combine flour, powder, 1 tsp cinnamon, salt and nutmeg.
Add the flour mixture in the creamed mixture, stir in walnuts.
Roll dough onto a floured surface.
Cut with cookie cutter. It's optional. If I'm in a hurry, I just shape a little balls, then I place them onto baking sheets and then flat them with a fork.
Brush with the milk and cinnamon.
Bake about 10 minutes.
