ULTIMATE WEDDING COOKIES
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
2 cups confectioners' sugar, divided use
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cups finely chopped nuts (used macadamia nuts)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Beat butter with 1/2 cup of confectioners' sugar in mixing bowl until it's light and fluffy. Beat vanilla into mixture.
In another bowl, mix together the flour, salt and nuts.
Slowly beat the flour mixture into the creamed butter mix using low speed until it forms a smooth dough.
Roll the dough into 1-inch balls using about 1/2 a tablespoon of dough for each cookie. Chill in refrigerator if dough is too soft to handle. Using ungreased cookie sheets, place cookie dough balls 2-inches apart.
Bake the cookies at 350 degrees F until they are lightly browned, about 15 minutes.
While cookies are still hot from the oven, roll them in the remainder of the confectioners' sugar. Allow cookies to cool on a rack, then roll them again in the confectioner's sugar.
Store in airtight containers or sealed plastic bags. May also be frozen.
Makes 5 dozen cookies.
