Tea Cake Cookies
Tea Cake Cookies
1 cup (2
sticks) butter, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted
1-1/2 tsp. vanilla
2 cups flour
2/3 cups walnuts, finely chopped
2 cups (12 oz. pkg). chocolate chips (divided 1-1/2 and 1/2 cups)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Beat butter and powdered sugar together until creamy. Add the flour and nuts. Stir in 1-1/2 cups of chips. Roll dough into 1" balls and place on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake for 10 - 12 minutes or until a light golden brown. Cook for 2 minutes then remove off baking sheet.
Melt the remaining chip. I put them in a zip loc bag and either put the bag in boiling water or in the microwave for 30 seconds. Once melted, knead the bag and then cut a small hole in the edge. Then drizzle the chocolate over the tops of the cookies. Chill until chocolate is set.
