Directions
Have butter at room temperature.
You may try solid margarine with almost the same success as with butter.
Place butter in a mixing bowl.
Beat with electric mixer.
Gradually add granulated sugar while continuing to beat; stir in vanilla extract and salt.
Add ground nuts and flour; roll into a ball and chill for 15 minutes.
Break off pieces of dough and roll between palms of your hands to form balls the size of a small walnut.
Do not make these too large.
Place on ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake in preheated 300-degree F oven for 18 to 20 minutes.
Remove and roll, while still warm, in powdered sugar.
