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!
