It's not often that I make these cookies and I really can't say why because they are delicious. They're easy to make, have a wonderful nutty, crunchy/crumbly texture, and a great sugar cookie taste. The recipe is easy to follow and unlike a lot of recipes where you are overloaded with dough and spend half the day baking them, this makes little more than a couple of dozen.
The recipe, as you can see, is from the Gooseberry Patch Old-Fashioned Country Cookies Cookbook. I'm reproducing the page here, so you get a bonus recipe as well (though I've not tried this one and so can't vouch for them.)
During the warm days of spring and summer when you don't want to spend a lot of time dealing with a hot oven, these bake up quickly and will be most welcome at any outdoor event.
Give them a try. You'll be the hit of the neighborhood!
