For the best flavor, use high-quality butter and fresh nuts. Sifting the flour and confectioners' sugar ensures a delicate, melt-in-your-mouth texture. Don't overbake the cookies; they should be just lightly golden around the edges. Rolling the cookies in confectioners' sugar while they are still slightly warm helps the sugar adhere better. Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
