Yield 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 7

Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 1/3 cups powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups pastry flour
3/4 cup finely chopped toasted walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325. Lightly spray baking sheet with nonstick spray. Using electric mixer, beat butter and 1/3 cup powdered sugar in medium bowl until fluffy. Beat in vanilla and salt. Add flour and walnuts and stir just until blended. Form dough into 1-inch balls. Place 1 inch apart on prepared baking sheet. Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Cool slightly, about 15 minutes. Place remaining 1 cup powdered sugar in medium bowl. Roll cookies in sugar to coat; reserve sugar. Refrigerate cookies until cool, about 1 hour. Roll cookies again in sugar. (Cookies can be made 1 week ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)
