• 1 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
• 1/2 cup soft butter or margarine
• 1 cup pecans or hazelnuts, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Confectioners’ sugar

Pre-heat the oven to 375°F.


In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients except the confectioners’ sugar. With your hands, mix until thoroughly blended. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. 


Using your hands, roll the dough into balls approximately 1 1/4 inches in diameter. Place the balls 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets.


Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cookies are set but not brown. Let stand for 1 minute before removing the cookies from the cookie sheets. Remove to wire rack; cool slightly.


Roll the cookies in confectioners’ sugar while still warm; cool completely. Just before serving, re-roll in confectioners’ sugar.
