Russian Teacakes-(they still need a second roll in powdered sugar and then they will be nice and snowy white!)
Russian Teacakes
1 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup sifted confectioners (powdered) sugar-I am lazy and skip the sifting...shhh
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp salt
2 1/4 cups flour
3/4 cup of finely chopped nuts
Mix butter, sugar and vailla thouroughly, Measure flour by dipping method or by sifting. Stir flour and salt together; blend in. Mix in nuts. Chill dough.
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Roll dough in 1" balls. ( I use a #60 cookie scoop)
Place cookies on ungreased baking sheet. ( I use my silpat and put a ton of them on...they do not spread)
Bake 10-12 minutes, or until set buy not brown. (I find 10 minutes perfect) While warm, roll in powdered sugar. Cool and roll in powdered sugar again.
I make this recipe times four...they are my Mama's favorite and usually the first ones of the season I make so she can sample for a couple weeks. She always gets her own private reserve!

Kitchen Aid Fudge
first step...add evaporated milk and sugar with a dash of salt.
you will pour the boiled mixture over these goodies patiently waiting in the Kitchenaid.
This is my Dad's favorite, so it needs to be cooked on the first day of baking. It has to pass his official taste testing!
