Dainty Butter Cookies

1 cup butter
5 T. powdered sugar
2 cups flour
1 T. water
1 t. vanilla
1 cup chopped nuts
pinch of salt

Mix ingredients and drip from a spoon onto a greased cookie sheet.  Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. 

Frosting:
1 cup powdered sugar
2 T. cream
2 T. melted butter
1/2 t. vanilla

Frost cooled cookies and sprinkle with Christmas sugar.  Grandma always makes these at Christmas time and don't know why they didn't get into the original cookbook.
