Spiced Nut Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Spread the nuts out on a large baking sheet. Bake until the nuts are lightly toasted, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• In the meantime, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the remaining ingredients and stir to combine. Transfer the nuts to a serving bowl. Pour in the butter and toss to coat evenly. Serve warm or room temperature.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. In the bowl of your stand mixer, combine sugar cookie mix, crushed nuts, and spices. Add butter, almond flavoring, and vanilla. Scoop about a teaspoon of cookie batter and flatten onto cookie sheets. You should get about 2 dozen cookies. Bake for about 8 - 10 minutes or until edges are just slightly golden. Let cookies sit for a few minutes on cookie sheet before transferring them to a wire rack. (They will be very soft and will tear apart if you don't let them rest first). Once slightly cool, roll each cookie in confectioner's sugar and enjoy!

Steps:

• Mix the flour, the baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves together in a bowl.
• Cream the butter and brown sugar together with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth; beat the egg and vanilla extract into the butter mixture. Add the flour mixture in small amount to the butter mixture, beating each addition until blended. Form the dough into a ball, wrap with plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 3 days.
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease baking sheets.
• Roll the dough out on a floured work surface with a rolling pin to about 1/8-inch thickness. Cut with 2-inch cookie cutters. Arrange the cut cookies onto the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the edges begin to brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Cream together the butter, sugars and eggs.
• Sift together the dry ingredients, gradually add to the butter mixture and mix well.
• Stir in the nuts.
• Roll into a log, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• The next day, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Slice cookies very thin (about 1/4 inch thick) and bake for 10 minutes or until lightly browned.
