ABOUT WALNUT COOKIES RECIPE

This is a walnuts cookies recipe that is simple to prepare and requires no special skills. It only involves beating flour, sugar, baking powder, butter, eggs, salt, and walnuts in the bowl of a mixer, then rolling the mixture into balls, and baking…

Voila, there you have it– delish walnut cookies that are ready to be devoured with milk, coffee, tea, or other of your choice.

Can’t believe it? Well, just check out Pilar’s recipe! Here she is, in her own words:

“Hello!
 
I’m Pilar Hernandez. I was born and raised in Chile. Went to medical school there and then moved to Houston, Texas in 2003 without knowing how to cook and speaking no English.
 
I still remember the first time I went to the grocery store. I almost cried out of frustration, not knowing what brands to buy or which food was equivalent to the foods I grew up eating.
 
Fast forward: today I’m a happy food blogger at En mi cocina hoy and mom. Welcome to my South American Kitchen! Where I will show you how to cook Chilean food with American ingredients, you find in your supermarket. I’ll challenge you to try exotic fruits like lucuma or maqui, and our favorite cereals wheat berries and quinoa.
 
Easy and delicious walnut cookies. Perfect to make with the kids.”

WHEN TO MAKE WALNUT COOKIES

“My mom used to make trays and trays of cookies all homemade and very well presented for family functions, birthdays, Christmas, almost any reunion was an excuse to make lots of cookies. These walnuts cookies were always present, easy to make, and perfect with tea or coffee. One of my family favorites. I learned to make them young, and now my seven-year-old is in training.”
 
Thank you, Pilar, for sharing your scrumptious recipe with us, and also for putting a smile on our faces. Sweets make life joyful and exciting!
 
I hope you try these delish walnut cookies and have a sweet week! Please don’t forget to stop by Pilar’s blog and say hello! Her blog is filled with yummy South American recipes, both in English and Spanish.
 
See ya soon!

      In mine too, Deb! My girls are crazy for cookies and these are no exception. I prefer mine with a good cup of coffee and them, with milk. 😉

    Congrats for these easy, yummy cookies Pilar! Plus, this recipe is super versatile; you can also roll the cookies on other nuts or even coconut flakes, right? Can’t wait to give these a try, as soon as the weather starts to cool a bit down here:):)
