Ingredients:

Serving

2 1/2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup shortening
1/4 cup butter (softened )
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tbsp vanilla
1 tsp almond extract
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Directions:

Cream the shortening, butter and sugar together.
Blend in the vanilla, almond extract and nuts.
Sift together flour and salt, adding it to wet ingredients and mixing until dough is smooth and well blended.
Shape into small balls (1 tbsp of dough for each).
Place balls on ungreased baking sheet and flatten bottoms just enough so they won't roll.
Bake at 325 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
Roll cookies in powdered sugar after baking.
Option: If desired, top with colored sugar, coconut or more nuts before baking and then don't roll in powdered sugar after baking.
