BASIL BUTTER



Basil Butter image

This stuff is great for just about anything! For a fancy presentation, use an ice cream scoop or melon baller to form the butter into balls. You can make plenty of this when basil is in season and store it for later use in the freezer. If you don't have a food processor, use your blender. Cook time is freeze time.

BASIL BUTTER BALLS

I recall getting this from an old Gourmet magazine. It is super easy and great to have in the freezer for pasta. Fresh basil is a must. Difficult to give number of servings because it depends on how much sauce you like.

BUTTER BALLS



Butter Balls image

There are similar versions to this cookie, but I truly think that if you make mine like directed, you will find that these are the best. They will melt in your mouth. This has been a recipe used in my family since I was a little girl. We always made them for Christmas and weddings, but they are good anytime. The key is to use butter and make sure you grind the nuts very fine. I use my Kitchen Aid grinder attachment, but you can also use a food processor. Other versions use just chopped nuts, but I think when they are finely ground that makes the difference. Another important step is to bake them at 250 degrees for 45 minutes. Again, the other versions don't do this, but I stick with my recipe and am never disappointed. The extra time is worth it! This recipe will probably make 100 balls, depending on how large you make the cookies. The baking time listed is just an estimate. It will vary depending on how many cookies you make and how many you put on a cookie sheet. You can fit quite a bit on a cookie sheet because they really don't spread much.

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h15m

Yield 100 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb butter, softened, no substitutes
4 cups walnuts or 4 cups pecans, very finely ground
8 tablespoons granulated sugar
4 tablespoons vanilla
1/8 teaspoon almond extract
4 cups flour
powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Grind walnuts very fine. Set aside.
  • Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add vanilla.
  • Add flour and nuts alternately. You may have to mix by using your hands to really get it all mixed together well.
  • Roll into small balls, approximately 1-inch.
  • Place on cookie sheet, ungreased. You can usually fit a lot of cookies on the cookie sheet because they do not spread that much.
  • Bake at 250 degrees for 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, have a bowl of powdered sugar ready for when the cookies come out of the oven.
  • When cookies are brought out of the oven, allow to cool for maybe a minute until you can pick them up without breaking them. Roll in powdered sugar and place them on wax paper. Cool.
  • I also like to roll them in powdered sugar a second time when they are completely cool.
