I probably spelled that wrong, but its from Anna's Betty Crocker cookie cookbook. They are delicious, although Ed was being grouchy and didn't like them because they're not "cookie shaped". Fine, more for me. We changed the recipe a bit in that we only had pecans, not walnuts, to put on top, but that didn't change the deliciousness. Anna also had some Fiori Di Sicilia flavoring, basically a citrus/vanilla flavor, that made them very good. If you don't have any of that, I'd suggest adding some vanilla and some lemon zest or something, because they were delicious.
1C butter
1C sugar
1 egg, divided
1 tbs water
2C flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4tsp Fiori Di Sicilia
~1/2C walnuts or pecans (we needed more than 1/2C), finely chopped
Preheat your oven to 350F.
Cream the butter with the sugar, add the egg yolk and Fiori Di Sicilia or vanilla and lemon. Add the flour and salt on top, mix the salt into the flour, and combine flour with butter stuff. Grease a 9x15" pan (I think? Can't remember...), and press the cookie dough into the pan. Sprinkle with the cinnamon, and then brush with the egg white-water mixture. Sprinkle the nuts on top. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned. Cut into bar shapes immediately, and cool on a cooling rack.
