Cinnamon Walnut Crackles
makes 2 dozen cookies
2 cups walnut halves
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Powdered Sugar for dusting (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Grind walnuts in a food processor until very finely ground.
Add egg, powdered sugar, nutmeg and vanilla.
Process until thoroughly blended.
Let mix stand for about 2 minutes. It will firm up some.
Using a tablespoon, place rounded balls of dough on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake for about 13-15 minutes or until light golden brown.
Remove from oven and let stand on cookie sheet for 5 minutes. Cookies will appear puffed, but will flatten upon standing.
Remove to cookie rack cool thoroughly.
Sprinkle tops of cookies with powdered sugar.
The recipe says to add powdered sugar and nutmeg to the food processor after grinding the walnuts, but the amounts are not listed in the ingredients.
I believe it's a mistake and should be just sugar.The nutmeg should be cinnamon.
Not my recipe but seems to be the correct ingredients.
