Old-Fashioned Maple Walnut Butter Balls

"These little maple balls are so buttery, they just melt in your mouth! Better make a double recipe of the delicious cookies, cause your going to need lots! If you don't have any maple extract on hand, just use 2 tsp vanilla instead, it just won't have the maple flavouring, but they are still great."

  1. so i was looking for this recipe and of course it came up by kitten. I only had peanuts, so i crushed them in the food processor and added them in ! Used vanilla and wha-la!
     
  2. Delicious cookies! I made these exactly as written and they turned out just wonderfully. I was a little bit nervous while mixing as the dough seemed very crumbly, but DO NOT ADJUST!! They came together perfectly for a beautiful addition to my Christmas Tray. Thanks Kitten!
