– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened – 1/2 cup powdered sugar – 1 teaspoon vanilla extract – 2 cups all-purpose flour – 1 cup finely chopped pecans or walnuts – Powdered sugar for rolling and dusting
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1/2 cup powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
Add Vanilla: Mix in the vanilla extract until well combined.
Add Flour and Nuts: Gradually add the all-purpose flour to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. Fold in the finely chopped pecans or walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Shape the Dough: Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Bake the Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are set and the bottoms are lightly golden. The tops of the cookies should remain pale.
