Butter Balls

1. 1

   Grind walnuts very fine. Set aside.

2. 2

   Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

3. 3

   Add vanilla.

4. 4

   Add flour and nuts alternately. You may have to mix by using your hands to really get it all mixed together well.

5. 5

   Roll into small balls, approximately 1-inch.

6. 6

   Place on cookie sheet, ungreased. You can usually fit a lot of cookies on the cookie sheet because they do not spread that much.

7. 7

   Bake at 250 degrees for 45 minutes.

8. 8

   Meanwhile, have a bowl of powdered sugar ready for when the cookies come out of the oven.

9. 9

   When cookies are brought out of the oven, allow to cool for maybe a minute until you can pick them up without breaking them. Roll in powdered sugar and place them on wax paper. Cool.

10. 10

    I also like to roll them in powdered sugar a second time when they are completely cool.
