Russian Tea Cakes

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350 F.

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer, cream together the butter, sifted sugar and vanilla. Set aside.

3. 3

   Sift together the flour and the salt, then mix into the butter mixture about one third at a time. Stir in the nuts.

4. 4

   Using a spoon or a small cookie scoop to get the right amount, roll the dough into 1 inch balls, and place on an un-greased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are set but not brown.

5. 5

   Place the remaining powdered sugar in a bowl, and roll the cookies in it while they are still warm. Allow to cool on wire racks, then roll them in the powdered sugar again once they have cooled off.
