These kourabiedes have been a firm favourite in the Wyer household for as long as I can remember ~ they're devilishly good!

Ingredients: 1 cup butter / 3/4 cup sugar / 1/4 tsp salt / 3/4 cup finely chopped fresh almonds, walnuts or pecans / 2 cups of all purpose flour
1. Pre-heat oven to 350.
2. In a large bowl beat butter until fluffy, add sugar and beat again until fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add nuts, flour and salt. Bring dough together with your fingers. Break off small pieces and form into crescent shape. Place on ungreased cookie sheets and bake for approximately 15 minutes. Whilst the cookies are still warm roll in icing sugar.
