Preparation
Step 1
Mix margarine, sugar and eggs well. Sift dry ingredients and add to margarine mixture. Stir in nuts and vanilla.
Step 2
Shape into rolls and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, at least 2 hours but overnight is better. when thoroughly chilled, slice 1/8" thick and bake on ungreased teflon or nonstick cookie sheet. Cookies spread, so do not place too close together.
Step 3
This recipe makes 4 rolls, which may be stored in the refrigerator for several weeks before baking or may also be frozen.
Be very careful of the timing as these thin cookies burn easily. Check the first cookie sheet often, and time exactly how long your oven takes to bake the cookies to perfection and repeat!
