Baking Instructions
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare Dough
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla extract and mix well.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground walnuts, and salt.
Combine Mixtures
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Take small pieces of dough and roll them into crescent shapes (about 1-2 inches long). Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown.
Cool and Dust
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
