Ingredients
- 250 g butter (Softened at room temperature)
- 100 g walnuts crushed
- 350 g all-purpose flour
- 100 g icing sugar
- ground cinnamon for dusting
- icing sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat the fan oven to 180° C (356° F).
- Line 2 large baking trays with parchment paper, and set them aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, place the flour and add the softened butter, icing sugar, and crushed walnuts.
- Gently mix them with your fingertips until combined, and form a nice soft dough.
- Take a piece of cookie dough about the size of a walnut, approximately 20 grams, and shape it into a ball.
- Gently press on the cookie ball to flatten it and place it on a baking tray.
- Repeat this process until you use up all the cookie dough. This recipe should yield approximately 44 cookies.
- Bake the cookies for 15 minutes, or until they are slightly browned on the sides.
- Combine a tablespoon of icing sugar with a teaspoon of cinnamon, and dust this mixture over the cookies while they are still warm.

Notes
- Use high-quality, fresh walnuts for the best flavor. Toasting the walnuts lightly before adding them to the dough can enhance their nutty taste.
- If you need to soften butter quickly and forgot to leave it out at room temperature, there's a speedy solution! Heat a large glass jar by filling it with boiling water. Once the jar is warm, empty the water and cover the butter with the jar for a few minutes. This will soften the butter efficiently.
- Cookie recipes often require precision, and using a kitchen scale to measure ingredients by weight is the most reliable method for achieving perfect outcomes.
- If time allows, chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes before baking. This helps the cookies maintain their shape and enhances the flavors.
- Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined. Overmixing can lead to tough cookies.
- Leave enough space between each cookie on the baking sheet as they will spread a bit while baking.
- Keep an eye on the cookies as they bake. They should be just golden around the edges. Overbaking can make them too hard.
