These are my alltime favorite cookies. My mother has been making these since I was little. I am not much of a sweets person but I'll make an exception for these tasty treats. They have a sweet buttery flavor that is to die for and I love the combination of textures with the golden crispy edges and moist middle. I'm sure you will be a fan as well after one bite.

SERVES 6 , 36 cookies (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees Farenheit.
  2. 2
    Grease a large cookie sheet.
  3. 3
    Soften butter and combine with sugar (mixing well).
  4. 4
    Beat the eggs and then add to them to your butter/sugar mixture.
  5. 5
    Add the vanilla extract and continue mixing well.
  6. 6
    In a separate bowl sift together your dry ingredients (flour, chopped walnuts and salt).
  7. 7
    Finally add your dry ingredients and mix thoroughly until batter is smooth.
  8. 8
    Using a tablespoonful, drop batter unto your cookie sheet leaving a couple inches space in between each cookie as they will spread while baking.
  9. 9
    Bake for about 10-12 minutes until edges are slightly browned.
  10. 10
    Let cool for two minutes before removing.
  11. 11
    Remove with a spatula and carefully loosen edges on all sides so cookies will not fall apart.
  12. 12
    These are best served right out of the oven with a large glass of milk. Enjoy!

A lovely cookie with crisp edges and a cake like center. Very mild flavor. Be very careful about oven temperature and time as they can burn easily.

    Oh my, I think I have just found my new favorite cookie!!! So quick and easy to make and we loved the crispy edges and soft moist middle. Definitely allow a couple of inches between cookies as they do spread out. It just doesn't get any better than this. Thanks for sharing Brew City Chef!!!
