I tried this recipe and the cookies flattened!! If there is anything I may need to do different please let me know!
I made these and rolled them in colored sugar and filled with matching frosting. I can't tell you how many people have requested the recipe thanks a million!
These were so easy my children ages 13 10 8 7 made themselves and gave them out as goodie gifts for Christmas.
Fantastic! These are just like mom used to make. They are melt-in-your-mouth good. Since the recipe doesn't tell you how many or what kind of nuts to use I find that 2 c. finely chopped pecans works great. I filled them with vanilla frosting dyed red and green for Christmas and they were delicious and pretty to look at! Thanks.
These are very good cookies! I needed to add a little more flour so they were not sticky to roll and filled the cookies with the jam before baking.
These are hands down my favorite Christmas cookies. Light and buttery and not overly sweet which makes filling them with tinted sugar cookie frosting perfect. I don't think the egg white dip is necessary if your nuts are chopped finely enough especially if using walnuts which are fairly moist after you chop them.
This is a very good tasting and easy recipe. I did find out that you really don't need to dip them in the egg whites. I made my first batch dipping them and rolling sprinkles on the edges it was an ugly mess. so i tried rolling the dough into a log after chilling it for about a half hour than just rolling the log in sprinkles and slicing them into about half inch cookies it worked out so much bettter and they look really good.
Fabulous! I rolled the cookies in chopped pecans and filled with raspberry jam! Everyone who tried them LOVED them! I also did a batch with chopped walnuts - they were good too but not nearly as good as with the pecans. Thanks for a great recipe!
I was looking for a recipe to compare to cookies a co-worker used to make. These looked really close so I decided to try. I'm glad I did; however it does need about 1/4 to 1/2 cup more flour otherwise they are very sticky and hard to roll. I just scooped out with a small ice cream scoop (after a failed attempt to roll) and indented as directed. They came out perfect! I added almond flavoring to plain white canned frosting...excellent!
