Walnut Crescent Cookies

The holidays provide an excuse to bake new recipes (and taste test them, too!). Give these Walnut Crescent Cookies a try, and you won't be disappointed. This Russian-inspired cookie recipe is simple enough for beginner bakers to pull off, but yields impressive-looking cookies. The nut and fruit preserve filling is sweet and soft, while the dough crisps up in the oven. Cane sugar is sprinkled on top of the cookies to provide added crunch and texture to these walnut cookies. The orange zest and cinnamon give these easy cookies holiday flair, and their pretty shape will liven up any holiday dessert platter.
