Method:
Mix butter, sugar, baking powder and vanilla thoroughly. Work in flour, salt, and nuts until dough holds together. If it is needed, add more flour, as hands must be clean from dough. Shape 1-inch balls. Place them on ungreased baking sheet. Heat the oven to 350. Bake 10-15 minutes but not till brown. While the balls are still warm, roll very well in confectioner's sugar. Then cool the cakes and roll in sugar again. Served with tea.
