- 1 cup very finely chopped nuts
- 2 cups flour
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 Tbsp vanilla
Instructions
- Mix all dough ingredients.

- Shape into crescent shapes and/or letters.
- Bake 15-20 min. on lightly grease pans.
Notes
I made them for Junie and they were in many sizes and shapes. I found out that the secret passed down from Aunt Fannie was that you had to work quickly to prevent the dough from melting.
You can make half a recipe if you don't want too many cookies.
