CRUNCHY NUT BROWN SUGAR COOKIES



Crunchy Nut Brown Sugar Cookies image

This recipe was given to me quite some time ago by a friend of the family. My husband is not a big cookie lover, but he loved these, so I requested the recipe. Shortening can be substituted for butter for a crispier cookie.

Time 1h

Yield 3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup butter (room temperature)
2 1/4 cups brown sugar (packed)
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup walnuts (crushed)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine all ingredients except flour and walnuts in a mixing bowl. Mix well.
  • Gradually add flour until well mixed.
  • Add walnuts. You can substitute any nut you prefer.
  • Variation: I have occasionally omitted the nuts for chocolate chips - or used both. I would almost say they are better than the toll house recipe.
