OPAL'S WALNUT SHORTBREAD COOKIES - Incredibly Delicious

Category: Cookies

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2/3 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts
Powdered Sugar Icing (recipe follows) (optional)

In a large mixing bowl, beat butter on medium speed to high speed for 30 seconds. Add sugar and salt. Beat until combined, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Beat in egg and vanilla until combined. Beat in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer. Stir in any remaining flour. Stir in walnuts.
Drop dough by rounded teaspoons 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Using your fingers, flatten dough.
