Do not ask me why these cookies are called 'Bachelor Buttons' because I don't have the answer. Who knows...perhaps these helped a young lady win the heart of a bachelor! I haven't made them yet, but like the list of ingredients. My friend makes these every year for her Christmas cookie tray. Perhaps I will too! Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar |
1 egg |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1 cup chopped black walnut |
1 cup flaked coconut |
Directions:
1. Cream butter in a large mixing bowl.
2. Gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy.
3. Add egg and beat well.
4. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl. Gradually add to creamed mixture, blending well.
5. Stir in walnuts and coconut.
6. Shape dough into 1-inch balls.
7. Place 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie.
8. Press center of each cookie with finger to form the button.
9. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes.
10. Remove to wire racks to cool.
11. Yield: 5 dozen.
