1 c. soft butter
Confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 tsp. water
2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 c. unsifted flour
1 c. chopped California walnuts

Cream butter and 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Shape in rolls about 1/2 inch in diameter and cut in 1 inch pieces. Put on cookie sheets and pull ends down slightly to form crescent shapes. Bake in moderate oven (375 degrees) about 15 minutes. While warm, roll in confectioners' sugar and roll again when cool. Makes about 6 dozen walnut crescents.
