- Beat butter in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer on
medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add granulated sugar;
beat until combined. Beat in water and vanilla until combined.
Beat in as much flour as you can with the mixer. Stir in
any remaining flour and the nuts with a wooden spoon.
- Shape dough into 3/4-inch balls. Place balls 2 inches
apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake in a 325° F oven
for 12 to 15 minutes or until bottoms are lightly browned.
- Place powdered sugar in a plastic bag. While cookies are
still warm, transfer two or three cookies at a time to the
bag of powdered sugar. Gently shake cookies in powdered
sugar until coated. Cool on wire racks. When completely
cool, gently shake cookies again in powdered sugar.
Makes about 72 cookies
