Gradually add sifted dry ingredients to butter mixture and beat until smooth. Add chopped nuts. Cover and chill about 30 minutes. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Divide dough into 1-inch balls and place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 10-12 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove cookies from sheets, roll in confectioner's sugar while still warm and cool on wire cake racks. Roll the cookies again in the sugar when cooled. Makes 4 dozen cookies.
