BUTTERBALL COOKIES 
1 c. soft butter
1/2 c. confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 tsp. vanilla
2 1/4 c. flour
1/4 tsp. salt
3/4 c. finely chopped walnuts

Time: 10-12 minutes per batch.

1. Blend first three ingredients.

2. Stir in remaining ingredients until dough is formed.

3. Roll into balls and place on UNGREASED cookie sheet.

4. Bake until set, 10-12 minutes in 400 degree oven.

(Note: it is important not to overbake. Cookies do not turn brown and are extremely fragile when rolling in sugar).
