EDNA'S NUTTY FINGERS



EDNA'S NUTTY FINGERS image

Categories     Candy     Nut     Dessert     Bake

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 stick margarine
5 tablespoons confectioners sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 cup chopped nuts
1 cup plain flour

Steps:

  • Cream margarine, confectioners sugar, and vanilla together. Add flour and nuts. Roll about the size of finger. Bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes. Cool and roll in powdered sugar.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the dough, which will make the cookies light and tender.
  • Do not overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Gluten formation is what makes baked goods tough. Gluten forms when glutenins and gliadins (proteins in wheat flour) combine with water and become stretchy.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies to keep their shape and prevent them from spreading too much. For sugar cookies, chilling the dough will help the cookie hold its shape when baked. This will also help prevent cracking and give the cookie crispier edges.
  • Bake the cookies in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that they bake evenly.
  • Allow the cookies to cool completely before frosting or decorating. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Edna's Nutty Fingers are a delicious and festive cookie that is perfect for any occasion. With their soft, chewy texture and nutty flavor, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
