Maple Black Walnut Cookies

• 1/2 cups Soft Butter
• 1/4 cups Finely Chopped Black Walnuts
• 1 pinch Salt
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla
• 1 Tablespoon Pure Maple Syrup
• 1 cup All-purpose Flour
• 1 cup Confectioners Sugar, Set Aside, For Rolling The Cookies In After They Are Baked

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix all ingredients together (except the confectioner's sugar) in the order given. Roll into walnut-sized balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. (These will not rise or puff when baking so they can be placed quite close together on the baking sheet.)
3. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until their bottoms start to turn golden.
4. Let cool for just a few minutes, then roll cookies in a small bowl of confectioner's sugar while they are still warm.
5. Makes about 2 dozen cookies.
