Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup walnut halves, toasted and ground
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!® Spread
1-1/2 cups confectioners sugar, divided
1 egg yolk
2 tsp. vanilla extract
Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°.

Combine flour, ground walnuts, baking powder and salt in large bowl; set aside.

Beat I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!® Spread until light and fluffy in medium bowl, with electric mixer about 2 minutes. Gradually beat in 1 cup sugar, egg yolk and vanilla with mixer on low, scraping sides occasionally. Gradually beat in flour mixture on low, then beat on medium 30 seconds or until mixture forms a soft dough. Using 1 tablespoon dough for each cookie, shape dough into crescents, about 3 inches long. Arrange crescents, 3 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.

Bake 14 minutes or until lightly golden around edges. Cool 2 minutes on wire rack; remove cookies from sheets and cool completely. Sprinkle with remaining sugar.
