Very good basic cookie. I started with chopped walnuts and cut them down further. I liked it that way. I also rolled the cookies in red sugar for Christmas. These will make it into regular rotation for cookie exchanges.

These cookies were delicious. The raw dough wasn't that tasty so I was unsure of the final product but, boy was I surprised! I used pecans instead and and sprinkled green sugar for decoration. My husband ate them up!!

WONDERFUL tasting crispy cookies!! Instead of nuts, I added white chocolate chips to the dough and rolled balls in cinnamon sugar. Taste like snickerdoodles!! Cookies do spread, so I would suggest placing balls about 3" apart. Because I didn't refrigerate the dough first, the baking time was reduced. Watch carefully, they brown very quickly!! I will be lowering my oven temperature to 325 degrees next time when using unrefrigerated dough. Wonderful addition to any cookie recipe collection!!

Very light and crisp. I didn't use any nuts, because my family is allergic to them, and i also used 1/3 cup cocoa powder and 1 tbsp cinnamon. The end result tasted like a graham cracker, but it was good because i like graham crackers.

These cookies came out perfect! Very light with a little crispiness. I did use superfine sugar to roll the cookies for a softer texture. A great little treat!!!

Whoops! sent wrong review. These cookies do not need to be chilled! I added cocoa like suggested and they turned out great. I also used almonds instead of walnuts.

These were good. Buttery and tasty. I ended up using 3/4 c of nuts and used green sugar to make them pretty for my Christmas cookie plate.

Excellent cookie. I used a red colored sugar sprinkle for the holidays in place of the white sugar and they looked really pretty, too.

This is a wonderful recipe. The cookies are nutty and delicious. I rolled mine in colored sugar to make them more festive for holiday gifts. I also used 1 cup of finely chopped walnuts. It seemed to need more nuts because the dough is soft. As my last pan is baking, I am mixing up another turn because I know I'll need more of these.

A very nice cookie, extremely light and crisp. A few notes: make sure the nuts are very finely chopped; I also needed far more than just a half a cup to roll the cookies in. Adding the cocoa makes a delicious cookie, but it's misleading to call it 'brownie like' . If you're not fond of nuts or don't have them on hand, the cocoa version is good even without them, especially if you mix a small amount of cinnamon into the sugar that you roll them in. Lastly, I usually refrigerate sugar cookie doughs before I shape them, to make them easier to handle, but don't do that with this recipe; the dough is soft, but manageable, and it holds the nuts better at room temperature.
