I got this recipe from a collection of recipes for covered dishes entitled Just As I Ham by Jane and Mark Jarrell. The nuts are really good. The recipe makes 4 dozen, and they're easy to make, too. The number of servings is a guess - all I know is that they always go quickly.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups butter, softened to room temperature (not margarine)
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
5 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon baking powder
Directions:
1. Cream butter and eggs until well blended. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
2. Mix the dry ingredients and add to the creamed mixture.
3. Mix well.
4. Form long, finger-size rolls and wrap in wax paper.
5. Chill for several hours.
6. Slice into 1/2 inch slices and place on baking sheet.
7. Bake for 7 to 10 minutes until light brown.
