1 c. butter, softened
1/2 c. powdered sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
2 1/4 c. all purpose or whole wheat flour
1/4 tsp. salt
3/4 c. finely chopped nuts

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Mix butter, 1/2 cup powdered sugar and the vanilla. Mix in the flour, salt and nuts until dough holds together.

Shape dough into 1 inch balls. Place about 1 inch apart on greased cookie sheet. Bake until set but not brown, 10 to 12 minutes.

Roll in powdered sugar while warm; cool. Roll in powdered sugar again (do not use self-rising flour).
