Grace Coolidge's Ice Box Cookies
- add review
- #14338
ingredients
1 cup butter or shortening
2 cups brown sugar
3 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup walnuts
2 eggs, well beaten
directions
Cream the butter and sugar. Sift the flour, soda and salt three times. Add nuts, add eggs and flour.
Mix all thoroughly and pack into mold (a long narrow bread pan) and let stand overnight. The next day, unmold, slice very thin, and bake in a moderate oven. Do not grease the mold or baking pan.
If these cookies are baked at 375 degrees F for 10 minutes, they will be nice and moist and chewy. Bake them a little longer if you want them crispy.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

I made these for my grandaughter's president/wife presentation at her school. I did not have a mold (long narrow bread pan) as the receipe called for, so I just rolled the dough into small balls and cooked them as recommended. Being rolled, I baked one batch for 8 minutes to make them chewy. 10 minutes made them more crunchy. The flaor is good. I would have added cinamon but had to follow the receipe for her school project.
