These unique cookies are baked in muffin cups, giving them a perfectly round shape. I sometimes omit the pecans and decorate the cookies for holidays.
Ingredients:
2 cups butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
60 walnut or pecan halves, toasted
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Gradually add flour and mix well. Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls into greased miniature muffin cups; flatten slightly. Press a walnut half into the center of each.
2. Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool for 2 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Yield: 5 dozen.
