Increase speed to high; beat 10 minutes or until light and fluffy, scraping bowl often with rubber spatula. Reduce speed to low; add flour, vanilla extract , salt, and egg; beat just until blended, occasionally scraping bowl.
  2. With hands, shape dough into ball; wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate 1 hour or until dough is firm enough to handle. (Or, place dough in freezer 30 minutes.).
  3. Meanwhile, in blender at medium speed or in food processor with knife blade attached, finely grind walnuts. In small bowl, stir walnuts, poppy seeds, honey, orange peel, cinnamon, and 1/4 cup butter until mixed; set aside.
