List of Ingredients




1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour -- sifted
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon almond extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 egg -- beaten

Nut Filling*
1 1/4 cups walnuts -- ground
1/3 cup sugar
pinch salt
1 tablespoon melted butter
2 tablespoons water
1/4 teaspoon maple flavoring


Recipe



Sift flour and baking powder together. Cream the butter and sugar together well. Blend in the vanilla, almond extract, salt and unbeaten egg. Gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing well. Roll out on floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness; cut with "star-shaped cutter".
Place 1 tsp. of filling in center of each star. Bring the 5 points upright. Pinch sides together so points stand upright, allowing filling to show. Place on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake at 400 F. for 7 to 10 minutes.

Nut Filling: Combine ground walnuts, 1/3 cup sugar and 1/4 tsp. salt; add melted butter, 2 tbsp. water and maple flavoring. Mix well.



NOTES : These are very nice for a cookie tray and delicious!
