Yields 4 dozen cookies

Ingredients:

6 ounces of shelled hazelnuts
1 stick of softened butter
1 cup of sugar
2 eggs
½ teaspoon of vanilla extract
2 cups of flour
2 teaspoons of baking powder
½ teaspoon of salt

2. Cream butter and sugar. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Mix together flour, baking powder, salt, and grated nuts; add these gradually to the egg mixture, beating well. Then mix in whole nuts.

3. Form dough into two rolls, each about 16 inches long. Place on buttered baking sheet, and bake at 350° for 30 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from oven and slice the rolls on the diagonal. Each roll should make 24 ½ inch thick. Spread the pieces on a rack over the baking sheet and return to oven. Bake for 15 min-or until firm and a little more golden.

4. Cool. These keep well in a tightly covered container.
