Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies. Use real butter, not margarine, and use fresh, high-quality walnuts.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the dough, which will make your cookies light and tender.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before rolling it out. This will help to prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature. The cookies should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

These buttery walnut cutouts are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be decorated in a variety of ways. So next time you are looking for a special cookie recipe, give these buttery walnut cutouts a try.
