These cookies are a family favorite! We always make them at Christmas time!
1 Cup Earth Balance (Butter substitute)
1/2 Cup powdered Sugar (additional for sprinkling)
2 1/4 Cups Basic Gluten Free Flour Recipe #1
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup finely chopped Walnuts
- Mix Butter substitute and powdered sugar together.
- in a small bowl mix flour and salt together.
- Add flour mixture to butter mixture.
- Add Nuts.
- Stir until well blended.
- Transfer to a small bowl, press dough down, it may be crumbly.
- Chill dough for at least an hour.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees
- Bake on cookie sheet with parchment paper for 10-12 minutes until the bottoms of cookies are very lightly browned.
- Immediately when you remove cookies from the oven sprinkle with powdered sugar. I use a flour sifter. If you do not have one of these, roll the cookies in a bowl of powdered sugar while the cookies are still warm. (when you roll them, they sometimes crumble. This is why I prefer to sprinkle them with the sugar)
One little Tip, The dough may be crumbly. If you kneed each ball in your hand until the ball sticks together more, they work. I noticed this before I cooked GF,DF,CF,SF. Probably partially to the fact that I don't refrigerate them enough. Patience is not my strong suit! :)
