Start in Beauty: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. This ensures easy removal of the cookies and prevents sticky messes!
Buttery Fusion: In a large bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and 1/2 cup of powdered sugar. Beat until the mixture is smooth and fluffy. This is the secret to the creamy texture of our cookies!
Flour Blossom: Gradually add the all-purpose flour to the butter mixture. Mix until everything is just combined. The dough may seem crumbly, but that’s perfectly normal!
Nutty Shades: Gently fold in the finely chopped walnuts. This adds a gorgeous crunch and nutty note to our cookies.
Vanilla Journey: Add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, mix until everything is well incorporated.
Star Shaping: Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. They will spread a bit, so make sure there is space between them.
