Just made these the night before last, and realized that I need to let the world know how good these are! They are truly fantastic. They remind me of Pecan Sandies, only better. I have made them with both walnuts and pecans. I made them with pecans last, because that is what I had on hand. You could also call them 'Butter Pecan Cookies' this way; it sounds a little more appetizing than Vinegar Cookies. I love how this recipe requires only a few ingredients, most of which you will already have. The only cons that I can think of is that the dough can be a little crumbly and dry, so I had to work the dough into flattened balls by hand before putting them on the cookie sheet(but it's worth it). They also seem to cook faster the closer you get to the bottom of the bowl, so I would look in the oven at about 15 minutes. They are also a delicate, crispy cookie, so you need to store carefully if you are going to gift these. These are definitely gift-worthy cookies!
