  4. Fold in the chopped walnuts and currants (if using). [Photo24688]
  5. Scoop 1/2 the batter (it will be very soft and sticky) onto a sheet of wax paper set on a double layer of foil.
  6. Using damp hands, roll dough into a log about 2 in diameter.
  7. Wrap in the waxed paper / foil layers and freeze until very firm, at the least 3-4 hours and up to 6 months.
  8. When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
  9. Unwrap one log and roll it in the coarse sugar to coat the sides completely.
  10. Use a sharp serrated knife to cut the log into 1/4 thick rounds and place them 1 apart on sheets.
  11. Lightly press a walnut half onto the tacky surface of each cookie (dough will have defrosted somewhat) and using a pastry brush lightly glaze the top of each round.
  12. Bake, one sheet at a time, for 16-17 minutes. They will not look overly browned but this is OK.
  13. Cool completely on the sheets.
