Special Sand Ball Cookies

1 c. butter

2 1/4 c. flour

1/4 t. salt

3/4 c. chopped nuts (I use almonds)

1/2 c. powdered sugar

1 t. vanilla

Mix together and form into balls - about the size of walnuts, or use the smalles scoop from Pampered Chef. Bake 375 degrees for 12-14 minutes - golden brown, but not dark brown. Roll in powdered sugar when they come out of the oven. After they have cooled, roll them in powdered sugar again, and you can store these in a covered container for at least a month. (If you don't keep sneaking them!)
