Ingredients
- ½ Cup butter unsalted
- ¼ Cup granulated sugar
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract pure
- 1 ¼ Cups all-purpose flour
- ½ Cup walnuts
- ½ Cup powdered sugar
Instructions
For the Dough
- Cream the butter in your electric mixer bowl until light and fluffy. Scrape the sides of the bowl.
- Add the ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons of sugar and then cream until it is light and fluffy. Add the vannila and mix it in.
- Blend in the flour gradually. Scrape the bowl and ensure all the flour is incorporated.
- Blend in the nuts gradually. Scrape the bowl and ensure all the nuts are incorporated.
- Blend in the flour gradually. Scrape the bowl and ensure all the flour is incorporated.
How to Roll the Dough
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- We like to weigh the dough so that all of the cookies are a uniform size. Ours weighed 13 grams which was perfect.
- Form the dough into balls. Roll the balls against your work surface with your fingertips to form a rope. Then, shape the dough into a crescent shape.
- Place the crescents about 3/4 inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake 12-15 minutes until lightly golden.Let them cool slightly.
- Spread the powdered sugar on a plate.Remove the cookies from the baking sheet. Roll them in the powdered sugar while they are still warm.
- Place a sheet of waxed paper on the counter. Add a cooling rack on top of the paper (this makes for easy cleanup.) Place the powdered sugar-rolled cookies onto the cooling rack to cool completely

Notes
- Use vanilla sugar and powdered vanilla in this recipe for better flavor. Eliminate the pure vanilla extract in the ingredients above if you do.
- To Freeze: For longer storage, freeze them for about a month. They are good long after that, but the powdered sugar will soak into the cookie, and it won’t look as pretty.
