Ingredients
-
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
-
Cream together sugar and shortening in a medium bowl. Stir in egg and vanilla, beat until light and fluffy.
-
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.
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
-
Unwrap dough and cut into 1/2-inch slices. Place cookies 1 1/2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets.
-
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.
-
When cool, place a dollop of fudge icing onto the center of each cookie.
