Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Pre-heat the oven to 350°F.
Pulse the 3/4 cups of walnuts in a food processor until finely chopped or you can use a knife to do it.
In a large mixing bowl combine 1/2 cup of powdered sugar, 1 cup of softened butter, 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract, and 1/4 tsp of almond extract.
Beat at medium speed until a soft dough forms.
Stir in the walnuts.
Shape the dough using a cookie scoop or your hands into 1" balls.
Place the cookies 2" apart onto ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake for 10 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned.
Remove the cookies from the oven.
Place a 1/2 cup of powdered sugar into a small bowl and roll the warm cookies into the powdered sugar and place onto a cooling rack to cool.
Once the cookies are completely cool, roll them into the powdered sugar again.

Notes

Store covered at room temperature. If the powdered sugar absorbs into the cookie you can sprinkle more on top before serving. Makes approximately 38 cookies.
