1 c. soft butter
1/2 c. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
2 c. sifted all-purpose flour
1 c. finely chopped walnuts
1 pkg. (5 3/4 oz.) chocolate kisses
Confectioners' sugar

Beat butter, sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Add sifted flour and nuts; blend well. Chill dough. Remove foil from kisses. Shape dough around kisses, using about 1 tablespoon dough for each; roll to make ball. Be sure to cover kiss completely. Bake on ungreased cookie sheet at 375 degrees for 12 minutes or until set but not brown. Cool slightly; remove to wire rack.

While still warm, roll in confectioners' sugar; cool. Store in tightly covered container. Roll in sugar again before serving, if desired. About 40 cookies.
