  • Roll dough into 14-gram portions and shape into balls. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Bake the cookies for 10 to 12 minutes. Let them cool completely on a wire rack before moving to the next step.

Notes

Let the butter cool completely before mixing to prevent overly soft dough.
Toast walnuts in a dry pan for 2 to 3 minutes to intensify their flavor.
If dough feels too soft, chill it in the fridge for 15 to 20 minutes.
Store finished cookies in an airtight container in a cool place for up to one week.
