Triple Walnut Cookies Recipes

THREE-INGREDIENT COOKIES

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 300 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
• Pulse the nuts in a food processor until coarsely chopped.
• Beat the egg white in a medium bowl with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes. Gently fold in the sugar and nuts. Spoon leveled tablespoons of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, about 12 cookies total.
• Bake, rotating halfway through, until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool completely on the baking sheet set on a wire rack.

• Scoop 1/2 the batter (it will be very soft and sticky) onto a sheet of wax paper set on a double layer of foil.
• Using damp hands, roll dough into a log about 2" in diameter.
• Wrap in the waxed paper / foil layers and freeze until very firm, at the least 3-4 hours and up to 6 months.
• When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• Unwrap one log and roll it in the coarse sugar to coat the sides completely.
• Use a sharp serrated knife to cut the log into 1/4" thick rounds and place them 1" apart on sheets.
• Lightly press a walnut half onto the tacky surface of each cookie (dough will have defrosted somewhat) and using a pastry brush lightly glaze the top of each round.
• Bake, one sheet at a time, for 16-17 minutes. They will not look overly browned but this is OK.
• Cool completely on the sheets.

WALNUT COOKIES I

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

• Bake 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on wire racks.

FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE-WALNUT COOKIES

Steps:

• Position 2 racks in the upper and lower thirds of oven. Heat oven to 350°. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Place walnuts on a work surface and finely chop. Transfer to a separate large baking sheet and toast until fragrant, about 9 minutes. Let cool. Mix sugar, cocoa and salt in a bowl. Stir in walnuts. Add egg whites and vanilla; beat with a fork or electric mixer on medium until batter is just moistened. (Do not overbeat batter or it will stiffen.) Drop batter by the teaspoonful onto baking sheets in evenly spaced mounds. Bake cookies until tops are lightly cracked and glossy, about 15 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

WALNUT COOKIES II

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, white sugar, brown sugar, and baking soda. Add the egg, vanilla, and butter; mix until dough forms. Stir in the chopped walnuts. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets.
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until the edges are golden brown. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
