Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • 1 ½ cups white sugar

  • 1 ½ cups shortening

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 3 ½ cups cake flour

  • 1 ¼ teaspoons baking soda

  • ¾ teaspoon salt

  • ½ cup ground walnuts

  • 1 cup prepared chocolate fudge frosting

Directions

  1. Cream together sugar and shortening in a medium bowl. Stir in egg and vanilla, beat until light and fluffy.

  2. Combine cake flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the creamed mixture. Dough will be stiff, you may need to use your hands to mix. Roll dough into a log about 15 inches long, and roll in the ground nuts. Wrap and chill dough for at least an hour or until firm.

  3. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.

  4. Unwrap dough and cut into 1/2-inch slices. Place cookies 1 1/2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes. Allow cookies to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets before removing to cool completely on wire racks.

  6. When cool, place a dollop of fudge icing onto the center of each cookie.
