GREEK HONEY DAINTIES 
1 c. sweet butter
2 c. Mazola oil
1 c. fresh orange juice
Rind of one orange
1/2 c. sugar
2 tsp. baking soda
2 c. chopped walnuts
Flour enough to make medium dough

SYRUP:

2 c. sugar
1 c. honey
1 1/2 c. water

Melt butter and cool; put into mixer. Add Mazola and beat until creamy. Add sugar and beat thoroughly, at least 20 minutes. Mix baking soda into orange juice and add into mixture. Add rind of orange and mix well. Add flour gradually until a soft cookie dough is formed.

Take about a teaspoonful of the dough and roll into an oval shape. Flatten on one side and lay on greased cookie sheet. Bake in moderate oven (350-375 degrees) for about 30-35 minutes. In the mean time, boil syrup for about 5 minutes. While cookies are still warm, dip in syrup and sprinkle with nuts.
