Ingredients:

1 ½ cups all purpose flour

1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

½ cup butter, room temperature

1 egg

½ teaspoon ginger

1 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed

½ teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla

½ cup walnuts, toasted and finely chopped

Equipment:

stand mixer

hand mixer

whisk

bowl

baking paper

baking sheet

wire rack

oven

Cooking instruction summary:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt baking powder and ginger. Set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or with a hand mixer, cream the butter and sugar until combined. Brown sugar doesnt get as light and fluffy as granulated. Add the egg and vanilla and continue to beat until completely incorporated. Turn the mixer speed to low and add in the flour until almost totally incorporated. Stir in the walnuts. Divide the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll into a log about 2 inches in diameter. Refrigerate. The dough will be soft at this point so if you want perfectly round cookies (raise your hand if youre a perfectionist), take them out after about an hour and tighten the log to create a perfect circle. Chill overnight. When ready to bake preheat oven to 375F. Slice log into 1/8 inch slices, place 1 inch apart on parchment lined baking sheets, and bake 7-10 minutes in preheated oven until the edges have set and the centers are matte and no longer look doughy.Allow to cool 10 minutes on baking sheet and then cool completely on a wire rack.

Food Joke

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
