Ingredients

Serves:

Directions

Heat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheet(s) with foil. Have ready a 3-in. and a 1-in. triangular cookie cutter or cut out 3-in. and 1-in. triangles from sturdy cardboard to use as patterns.

Put walnuts in food processor; pulse until very finely ground (don’t overprocess or you’ll end up with a paste).

Beat butter and sugar with mixer on medium speed until blended. Add walnuts, egg white and vanilla; beat until smooth. On low speed, beat in flour and salt until just blended.

On a lightly floured surface with lightly floured rolling pin, roll out dough to 1/8 in. thick. Using 3-in. floured cookie cutter or unfloured 3-in. cardboard pattern, cut out triangles. Transfer to prepared baking sheet(s). Using 1-in. triangular cutter or a cardboard pattern, cut out triangles from center of 1/2 the cookies. Reroll and cut scraps.

Bake 8 to 10 minutes until firm and lightly brown around edges. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Dust triangles with openings with confectioners’ sugar. Spread preserves over solid triangles; top with triangles with openings. Dust with more confectioners’ sugar.
