This is another old recipe I found in my grandmothers recipe box. I can hardly read the recipe card, and it doesnt say how many this makes. I am going to guesstimate and say 3 dozen. I really have no idea, so please dont reply on my guesstimate. You can use a variety of finely chopped nuts in this recipe. Use approximately 2 cups of nuts, more or less to your desired amount. Cooking time is to make one batch. I have no idea how many this makes, like i said, so the yield is a GUESSTIMATE... please be aware that the yield is unknown! Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups sifted flour |
3/4 cup butter |
1 egg yolk, unbeaten |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
finely chopped nuts, variety of your choice |
Directions:
1. Cream butter in a medium bowl, and then gradually add sugar and cream until light and fluffy.
2. Add egg yolk, and beat well.
3. Then fold in the flour a little at a time, blending well after each addition; then add vanilla, and mix through.
4. Chill dough for several hours.
5. Pinch off small pieces of dough and roll into 1 1/3 inch x 1/4 inch sticks.
6. Roll sticks in finely chopped nuts.
7. Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet at 400 degrees F, for approximately 3-4 minutes.
8. You can also squeeze the dough through a cookie press, and roll in nuts.
9. bake, and cool.
10. Store.
11. ENJOY!
