God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Give me the grace [O Lord] to do as You command, and command me to do what You will!... O holy God…when Your commands are obeyed, it is from You that we receive the power to obey them.

INSTRUCTIONS
Sift the flour, salt, and baking powder together and set aside. Cream the
butter until soft and gradually add the sugar. Add the flour mixture a
little at a time and mix well. Refrigerate for one hour. Divide the dough
in half and keep one portion in the refrigerator while rolling out the
other to approximately 1/4" thickness. (The dough gets soft quickly.)
Sprinkle the dough with the nuts and gently press them in with the rolling
pin. Cut into 1-1/2" squares. Pix uses a paper pattern as she is hopeless
at estimating things like this, unlike Faith. Prick with a fork and place
the squares on an ungreased cookie sheet. Repeat with the rest of the
dough. Bake until golden brown, approximately 15 minutes in a preheated
350F oven. Makes 6 dozen squares. This is a devostatingly rich, crumbly
cookie.
