📝 Preparation Steps
1
Using a large whisk or electric mixer cream together butter, sugar, vanilla, and salt.
2
Using a spatula, gradually add flour in 2 batches. Lastly, stir in the nuts and mix until fully incorporated.
3
Cover and refrigerate the dough for approximately ⏱️ 45 minutes. (You can store the dough in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze it for up to 6 weeks)
4
Preheat to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
5
Place powdered sugar in a small bowl, set aside.
6
After chilling, use a 1 tablespoon measure to scoop your cookies. Roll between the palms of your hands to achieve a rounded ball. Place dough balls 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets and DO NOT flatten, leave as little balls.
7
Bake in preheated oven for ⏱️ 14-15 minutes. Do not overbake. The underside of the cookies should be only lightly browned but the top will still be pale in color which is correct.
8
Cool cookies on the baking sheet for approximately ⏱️ 5 minutes. While the cookies are still warm, gently roll them in the powdered sugar.
9
Place the sugar-coated cookies on wire racks to cool completely. Once cooled roll cookies in the powdered sugar for a second time.
10
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
