Italian Nut Roll Cookies
- COOKIE DOUGH
- 1/2 pound Margerine room temperature
- 8 ounces Cream Cheese softened
- 1/2 cup Powdered Sugar Sifted
- 3 cups Flour
- 1 1/4 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- NUT FILLING
- 1 cup Walnuts Ground
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla
- Milk Enough boiling milk to make nuts spreadable
- Cookie Dough
- Mix all ingredients well. Divide into 6 balls. Put in refrigerator over night. Take one ball out at a time and roll into 5 inch wide strips. Spread dough with nut filling. Roll dough into a log shape and cut into at an angle. (about 1 inch wide, should get 10-12 slices out of each roll.) On an ungreased cookie sheet, bake @ 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes, just until bottoms are brown.
- Cool, and ice with favorite icing (I use a powdered sugar glaze) and roll each in fine nuts.
