I have no time to do nothing :) Works is taking all my time. Good news that it will not last forever. So I have no time to bake cookies or pies, but it doesn’t stop me from wanting some sweets. And these cookies are perfect – you can form a log and then put in a freezer for later bake, when you will have no spare time.

250 g wheat flour

1 tsp. baking powder

125 g butter

125 g sugar (next time I will use 100g)

60 g walnuts, finely chopped

1 egg

1 tsp. vanilla essence

 

Sift the flour and baking powders. Put butter and crumble with the fingers till small crumbs. Mix in sugar and walnuts. Pour in the egg and vanilla essence. Mix the dough. Form about 5cm diameter log and fold in the foil or baking paper. Roll a little bit that sides were even. Put in a fridge for about 8 ours. Line baking tray with the baking paper. Cut dough log in thin slices and put them on a baking tray. Bake in 190°C preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or till become golden brown.
