Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 11

½ cup butter
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 egg white
1 cup packed brown sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Cream together butter or margarine and sugar. Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition.
  • In another bowl, sift flour, salt, and baking powder together. Blend in to the creamed mixture, and then add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla to the dough.
