This is a old time favorite recipe I thought I would share with you. It comes right out of my Mom's old Vintage Betty Crocker Cookbook. Our family has been making these cookies for years!
Russian Tea Cake Cookies
1 cup soft butter
1/2 cup confectioner's sugar
1 tsp Vanilla
2 1/2 cups Flour
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup finely chopped nuts of your choice (walnuts, pecans or almonds)
Mix together butter, confectioners sugar and vanilla. Stir in flour and salt. Mix in nuts.Roll into 1" balls. Place 2 1/2" apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 400 degrees 10 - 12 mins until set but not brown. While still warm, roll in confectioners' sugar. Cool. Roll in sugar again. Makes about 4 dozen 1 1/2" cookies.
Enjoy!

XO,

I have a Betty Crocker cookbook that was printed wonky so I got it free. The pages go 1-3 2-4 5-7 6-8 etc. Makes it hard to use the index but I used it a lot through my early cooking years.
Those look really good. I'm going to give them a try, then I will have one more thing to put on my list of things I love to eat that I shouldn't eat, but eat anyway!

Don't know why it shows me as anonymous, but that is me? :0) Jill And then it posted it twice, not sure what I did wrong.
I LOVE these cookies. At Christmas we call them snowballs. Mimi
