Walnut Crescents
What you need
- 2 cups flour
- 200g butter
- half cup sugar
- walnuts
Salt, pepper, water and oil don’t count. Mom always had those.
What you do
Work everything into a dough with finely chopped walnuts. Shape into small crescents, bake fifteen minutes, and roll in icing sugar while still warm.
How it feels to make
Rolling them in sugar while hot makes a cloud that gets everywhere and it's worth it.
Mom wrote on the back
Roll them in the sugar warm, then again when cold. Two coats is the secret.
